Английская Википедия:Chris Sebastian

Christopher Troy Sebastian (born 2 August 1988) is an Australian singer and songwriter. In 2012, Sebastian took part in the 1st season of The Voice Australia and was in Team Seal, but was eliminated in the quarter-finals. He returned to The Voice Australia in the 9th season and joined Kelly Rowland's team winning the title in July 2020.

Career

2008–2011: Career beginnings and "Flow"

Sebastian moved from Adelaide, South Australia to Melbourne, Victoria in 2008 to further his music career, where he worked as a singing teacher and producer. In July 2011, he released his debut single "Flow".^[1] auspOp described the song as a "likeable R&B/pop track that is as fresh as a summer breeze, combining cool harmonies with lashings of old school soul."^[2]

2012: The Voice season one

In 2012, Sebastian auditioned for the 1st season of The Voice Australia. He received chair turns from Delta Goodrem and Seal, opting to join Team Seal. Sebastian progressed to the top 16, before being eliminated from the competition.^[3]

In a later interview, Sebastian revealed "I really didn't want to [do the show]... They did a lot of things that they weren't meant to, like after my performance they played my brother's song. And the whole point was for me to have my own identity... So it was a bit of a crappy experience."^[4]

2013–2019: Independent career

In 2016, Sebastian toured with American vocal group Pentatonix and began work on his debut EP in Los Angeles.^[5]

On 20 October 2016, Sebastian released his debut EP Runaway.^[6] Sebastian said "My old manager had me doing the whole dance/R&B/David Guetta stuff and look, it was fun, but I didn't enjoy it. I would never play those songs at gigs... Obviously as an artist you want to enjoy playing your songs live and I didn't... I changed the way that I wrote - it's a lot more acoustic, I guess if Ed Sheeran met Ne-Yo, that's kinda the sound I'm going for."^[4] The EP was supported with a national tour in late 2016.^[7]

His second EP was This Christmas in 2018. He then joined Peking Duk, an Australian electronic music duo as a vocalist. The duo is made up of disc jockeys and music producers Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles.

2020: The Voice season 9

In 2020, Sebastian returned and auditioned for season 9 of The Voice Australia as an All Star.^[3] All four judges turned for his blind audition and he chose Team Kelly Rowland.^[8] He was announced the winner on 19 July 2020, beating Stellar Perry, Johnny Manuel and Siala Robson in a public vote, scoring $100,000 and a recording contract with EMI Music.^[9]^[10]

Immediately following the announcement of his win, Sebastian's debut single with EMI Music "Bed for Two" was released.

Upset viewers accused the TV singing contest of being "rigged", because contestant Chris' brother Guy Sebastian had been one of the show's judges. Sebastian denied receiving any preferential treatment, and said, as Guy's brother, he'd anticipated "negativity" going into the show. Sebastian said "Controversy is just part of being on television. I knew it was going to be a thing on this show, but I don't care. It's a voted show, it's audited, it couldn't be more above board. More people voted for me than are slamming me, so I'm going to focus on those people."^[11]^[12] A Nine Network spokesperson said: "The public vote for The Voice winner is highly regulated, operated by an independent third party, and overseen by lawyers. This year's result is the tightest ever, with less than half a percent of the votes separating the winner and runner-up."^[11]

Sebastian's 2019 single "I Found You" debuted at number 8 on the Australian Independent chart for the week commencing 27 July 2020.^[13]

2021: "Hard to Get to Love" & "Wasted On Me"

In March 2021, Sebastian released "Hard to Get to Love", followed by "Wasted On Me" in July 2021.
