Rockport Music Presents: The Sweet Remains

The acclaimed folk-rock trio, which has amassed more than 65 million Spotify streams, returns to touring in support of their highly anticipated fifth studio album, Embers—a mesmerizing collection of acoustic-driven, three-part harmonies.

A rare independent success, The Sweet Remains have surpassed 65 million streams on Spotify, earning a devoted global following.

Formed by Rich Price (Burlington, VT), Greg Naughton (NYC), and Brian Chartrand (Phoenix, AZ), The Sweet Remains is driven by three accomplished singer-songwriters. Rich Price, whose song I’m On My Way was featured on the multi-platinum Shrek 2 soundtrack, has released multiple solo albums and written for film and TV. Early in his career, he was signed to RCA and later Geffen Records. Greg Naughton earned acclaim for his debut indie release, Demagogue & The Sun Songs, praised by Performing Songwriter Magazine as “a magnetic writer and performer.” That album was co-produced by the late Grammy-winning artist Phoebe Snow. Greg’s work extends beyond music—he co-wrote and directed The Independents, inspired by the band’s real-life experiences, and often collaborates with his wife, Tony-winner Kelli O’Hara. Brian Chartrand, a celebrated Phoenix-based songwriter, has released numerous solo albums and tours internationally, including as the creator of Live From Laurel Canyon, a critically acclaimed tribute to folk-rock legends like CSN, Neil Young, and Joni Mitchell.

With Embers, The Sweet Remains continue their legacy, following in the footsteps of their beloved catalog: Music Fills The Spaces (2020), Night Songs (2015), North & Prospect (2012), and Laurel & Sunset (2008).
