Dean Lewis has given us another taste of his hotly anticipated third studio album, The Epilogue, out Friday October 18th, with Dean teaming up with US singer-songwriter Sasha Alex Sloan for the release of a heart-warming love song, “Rest.”

The album release will be supported by a global album tour The Epilogue World Tour – kicking off in Australia in October then hitting cities worldwide, with already sold out shows in Sydney, Melbourne, London, France and Netherlands. Tickets are on sale now here.
Dean and Sasha co-write and recorded “Rest” in Los Angeles. Sasha says of their first meeting, “I’ve been a fan of Deans for a while so when I found out we were writing together I was a little nervous but the second I walked in the room all my nerves went away. We clicked instantly. This song is the first song we ever wrote together, and I think we stumbled onto some magic that day… so excited for the world to hear it”.
“Rest” is co-produced by Dean and Colin Foote (Kygo, Why Don’t We, Cheat Codes), Alex Borel (Julia Michaels), and Petey Martin (Kygo, Kesha, Sam Feldt, Gryffin, Nicky Romero, Rob Thomas).
Known for his sadboi, heartbreaking global hits like “Be Alright” and “How Do I Say Goodbye,” Dean labels “Rest” as the “first love song that I’ve ever written.” The official music video for “Rest” features Sasha and was shot in Nashville by Deans brother and long-time visual collaborator, Sean Loaney.
