Universal Sigh released a new single on August 22, 2019 entitled “Bedrock & Paradox”. It is an upbeat, rock tune inspired by the struggle to remain present in the information age. The name of the song references the title of a chapter in the book Desert Solitaire by author and activist Edward Abbey. Bedrock & Paradox is a reminder that no one is immune from feelings of isolation and separation, even in times of abundant digital interconnection.
“It feels good to release new music after spending so much time on the road the past few years focusing on performance and composition,'' says guitarist and band manager Pace Maynard. “Bedrock is a staple of our live show that our fans will recognize and we sought to capture that energy in the studio environment.”
Bedrock & Paradox is the first of several singles releases planned ahead of Universal Sigh’s unnamed sophomore album which is expected to be released January 2020. It is the first glimpse into the diverse selection of tunes that were selected to be given the studio treatment.
