Sea Dramas - Escape Scenes [CD]

Escape Scenes is the new album by Sea Dramas, the San Francisco Bay Area based music project led by Scott Pettersen. Produced by Pettersen and mixed & mastered by David Glasebrook (Sugar Candy Mountain, Sam Burton, Sandy's), the album explores the liminal space of 2020-2021, reflecting Pettersen's experience as life turned inward and time blurred. Influenced by library music, dream pop, folk, and 60's pop, Pettersen took the opportunity to start fresh and experiment with a new palette of sounds, recalling Scott Walker, John Cale, Echo & the Bunnymen, and The Teardrop Explodes. "There's darkness, there's sadness, there's light and there's joy. All bound together in the realm of that unique time. The making of the album was my particular escape scene" says Pettersen.
