Seth Nyquist is an artist, writer & producer from Toronto, Canada, currently based between London, Paris, New York, LA and his hometown in Ontario.

Seth has always known exactly what he wanted to hear. From a young age he would sit in front of the stereo in his mother’s house, fast forward to a particular section in a recording, and immerse himself in those precious seconds. As the recording artist MorMor, Seth works in not so dissimilar a fashion: He has an idea for a sound, and he works intensely until he’s created it.

The first song Seth released as MorMor, a tangy synth pop anthem called “Heaven’s Only Wishful,” arrived in early 2018 like a breeze through a newly opened window: welcome and refreshing. Critics loved it—Pitchfork heralded him as “pop’s new auteur”—and in a matter of months the single had accumulated millions of plays. Following two acclaimed EPs—Heaven’s Only Wishful in 2018 and Some Place Else in 2019— his debut album Semblance arrived in 2022: by turns contemplative, jittery, wistful, gentle, and generous, his distinctive voice—a svelte tenor that sits comfortably higher in pitch—leaps out of the speakers, alighting over the sturdy bass lines, guitar riffs, and drums.

Alongside releasing music as MorMor, Seth produces for other artist projects and has writing credits with Post Malone, BJ Burton, Dave Bayley (Glass Animals) and Kamal.
