With a sound somewhere between Kate Bush, Laurie Anderson, and Bjork, Sarah combines classical sounding piano with ambient washes, vocoded synths, electronic elements and layered vocals. The result is a free-flowing style album that will appeal to a diverse audience.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;My Unwinding State&#8217; is Sarah&#8217;s\u00a0fourth album, and second LP release, and was released on 26 June.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;My Unwinding State&#8217; consists of 16 tracks, split into two parts, divided by an experimental piece, followed by an electronic instrumental.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There&#8217;s elements of David Bowie in this album as well, the song, &#8216;Break Me Down&#8217; harks back to Bowie&#8217;s &#8216;Scary Monsters&#8217; album, ambient sounds and ethereal vocals weaving in and out of the instrumentals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sarah Schonert has had\u00a0nearly 25 years of piano and vocal performance, and has been writing and recording as a solo artist since 2012. Her considerable skills are evident in &#8216;My Unwinding State&#8217; and the ambient quality of the tracks are at once appealing and mesmerising.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sarah is a true artist, and in addition to her music, she also produces visual art, primarily using charcoal and acrylic. She uses her own work on her album and song artwork.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well known in the\u00a0Peoria area where she performs live on keyboards or piano, Sarah&#8217;s album is available from her <a href=\"http:\/\/sarahschonert.bandcamp.com\/album\/my-unwinding-state\" target=\"_blank\">Bandcamp page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"350\" height=\"470\" style=\"position: relative; display: block; width: 350px; height: 470px;\" src=\"\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/v=2\/album=3962194983\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/\" allowtransparency=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find Sarah Schonert online on <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/sarah-schonert\" target=\"_blank\">Soundcloud<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/SarahSchonert\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SSchonertPianoGirl\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC7dg2YQdZzurzkYBxyh3zfQ\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a>, and her Official Website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eclectic in style, singer songwriter Sarah Schonert writes records and produces from her home studio in Peoria, Illinois.
