Mansions In The Sea

Mansions In The Sea is the indie folk project of Berlin-based singer-songwriter Sascha Blach, weaving warm acoustic textures with a quiet melancholy that lingers long after the last note. With a deep, expressive voice often compared to Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, or early Tom Waits, his songs open a space of intimacy and reflection, carried by hand-played instruments such as acoustic guitar, piano, violin, mandolin, and banjo.

Rooted in nature and philosophy, Mansions In The Sea’s music feels like it belongs to wide fields, fading light, and forests at dusk — an invitation to pause and drift inward. While deeply inspired by the folk traditions of the 60s and 70s, the project brings a modern sensibility, balancing timeless songwriting with subtle DIY production.

Once created during the solitude of the lockdowns, Mansions In The Sea has grown into a vessel for personal storytelling and atmosphere, offering listeners a journey through longing, stillness, and emotional depth.
