Think Wet Leg meets the Undertones… “How Are You Feeling? is a cheeky, brash and playful song inspired by the frustration of modern life, neurodiversity, and, it would appear, casual sex. True to form, the song is reckless, ambivalent and nonchalant. It is perhaps the first song to address these themes in such a way.
This song is just what people need right now. The prescription we need in an overly prescriptive environment. It’s a joyous discarding of the status-quo. I always mess around with the lyrics live, only on the day of recording did we decide what the lyrics would actually be.
– Jack River, lead singer
The band are currently making a ludicrous, hyper-shareable music video to accompany this song, with dressed up in ridiculous outfits, embodying the myriad emotional states in the song.

Sweet Unrest are quickly becoming known for their thunderous live performance that falls somewhere between ecstatic dance and religious ritual. This is the song that kicks off the show. Keen on poetry and revelry, the band posits this song as the antidote to anyone who feels penned in by the restrictions of modern life.
Since, the band have signed with A-Level Management & Lemon Sun Records.
London-based Sweet Unrest are fans of poetry, owing their name to Bright Star by Keats. Their musical interest lies in the tension between the pleasant and the painful. To the band, music is an extension of poetry, a medium they use to shed irony on a phrase or situation. Fundamentally, the band are obsessed with one thing: writing tunes that out shivers on your spine and coals under your feet.
