LONDON / WESTERN CAPE — November 7, 2025
Emerging indie-folk artist Seth Tabatznik continues to cement his place as one of the genre’s most soulful new voices with the release of his latest single, “Shining For Love,” out now via MOTH Music (Mother of The Heart). The track is a reverent, atmospheric celebration of love, nature, and the unbreakable bond between the two — a sonic offering that invites listeners to pause, breathe, and reconnect with something larger than themselves.
A Hymn to Nature and Connection
Premiered on EARMILK, “Shining For Love” unfolds with layers of acoustic guitars, devotional strings, and soft shakers that seem to breathe with the natural world itself. Tabatznik’s warm, introspective vocals rise from this organic landscape, carrying lyrics that honor the cyclical beauty of life and the love embedded in every sound, movement, and breath.
“This song came to me in a forest, spoken by the elements around me,” Seth explains. “It was like nature took my pen and transcribed the lyrics into my notebook. I love how the song builds and accelerates as a celebration for life, love, and nature. Every action in nature comes from a place of love — she expresses herself in sound and motion, and we’re part of that, not apart from it.”
An Artist Rooted in Purpose
Raised in London and now based in South Africa’s Western Cape mountains, Tabatznik’s work carries the depth of his surroundings. His acoustic folk sound blends the grounded textures of traditional songwriting with the ethereal tone of what he calls “medicine music.” It’s no surprise that his music feels equally at home in candlelit venues and under open skies.
Mentored by acclaimed folk artist Nick Mulvey, with inspiration drawn from his guitar teacher Rainer Scheurenbrand, Seth has found a way to channel spiritual reflection into contemporary songwriting. His compositions are gentle but powerful — meditative songs that bridge ancient wisdom with modern soundscapes.
From Local Stages to Global Attention
Though only releasing music since 2024, Tabatznik has already achieved over 100,000 streams across platforms and earned praise from tastemakers including EARMILK and CLASH Magazine, who described his earlier single “Choose To Be Alive” as “a homely offering… purpose-built for the live stage.”
Live, his performances are intimate and communal. His debut at Boschendal Estate in Cape Town and a follow-up show at London’s Green Note both sold out, signaling a growing audience for his grounded, heartfelt style.
With his 2026 sophomore album now in development, “Shining For Love” feels like both a statement of purpose and a promise — that Tabatznik’s journey as a songwriter is just beginning to bloom.
