Paul Bedal releases newest album, Unfolding

 

Unfolding marks Bedal's first piano trio release. Stemming from their previous collaborations, bassist Matt Ulery and drummer Quin Kirchner create a hypnotic space for Bedal’s compositions.

The compositions on Unfolding are a collage of moments and feelings spanning from the early pandemic lockdown to assimilating into a new fast-paced environment. All compositions were untitled while writing, but slowly evolved into themes often intertwined with nature, evident in song titles like "Streams," "Life on Ocean," "Clouds," "Luna Hermosa," and "April." The evolution of this trio and recording only seems natural and serves as a bridge for these past few years of transition encompassing marriage, a new city and recently becoming a dad.
