Devin Townsend Announces DreamPeace Sleep Album 'Harmonic Dharma,' Out Oct. 16
Oct. 10 — Canadian singer-songwriter and guitarist Devin Townsend announced a new album on World Mental Health Day: 'Harmonic Dharma,' arriving Friday, Oct. 16 across streaming platforms under his DreamPeace banner.
DreamPeace is a project Townsend created inspired by his own insomnia, making music to encourage restful sleep, especially for those who struggle to relax. 'Harmonic Dharma' was previously available only as a limited-edition CD during his Metamorphosis tour, with remaining copies offered to his Patreon community — this marks its first wide digital release.
Townsend said making the ambitious 'The Moth' album took him to a mentally challenging place, and that after completing it he went on a month-long retreat to re-center himself. The DreamPeace album is one of the nourishing harvests of that spiritual journey, and he hopes it brings listeners the peace it brought him — 'a soundtrack for anxious minds.'
He has also been candid that 'The Moth' led him to 'financial Armageddon,' with the Metamorphosis tour staged to offset the losses. From financial crisis to sleep music, the prog-metal veteran's life turn is written into the new record.
