NEW YORK, May 26 NY-GUY-SEBASTIAN-EPFEATURES SELECTIONS FROM UPCOMING U.S. DEBUT "LIKE IT LIKE THAT"
GUESTS INCLUDE JOHN MAYER, STEVE CROPPER AND DAVID RYAN HARRIS"Guy is one of the best singers I've ever worked with."--legendary guitarist and songwriter Steve Cropper
NEW YORK, May 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Already a bona fide superstar in his homeland of Australia, pop-soul singer and songwriter GUY SEBASTIAN is poised to conquer America with his U.S. debut LIKE IT LIKE THAT coming in January 2010. The EP, released today on all digital service providers, features three songs from LIKE IT LIKE THAT including the single "All To Myself" which includes JOHN MAYER on electric guitar and DAVID RYAN HARRIS on background vocals/guitar. Also on the EP is a cover of "Take Me To The River" which re-teams SEBASTIAN with legendary guitarist and songwriter STEVE CROPPER of Booker T & The MG's. Cropper, who co-wrote Otis Redding's soul-classic "Dock of the Bay" among many other Stax/Volt hits, previously played on SEBASTIAN's 2007 Australian release The Memphis Album and was the guitarist on Guy's 2008 tour. Title track "Like It Like That," (with John Mayer on backing vocals) concludes the EP on a poppy and upbeat note.
Since his formative years in Adelaide, Australia, soul music has been pulsing in GUY's veins. "I was immediately drawn to R&B, soul and gospel," SEBASTIAN explains. "When I was really young I remember spending hours by the radio singing along to Al Green, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder and Otis Redding." SEBASTIAN's extraordinary soulful vocals--which made him the first winner of the Australian version of "American Idol"--channel his iconic influences above and yet firmly resound with the singular stamp of his own unique personality.
The single for "All To Myself" will go to radio on June 16th, followed by a U.S. tour - details to be announced soon.
