Take a smooth soulful voice and mix it with the beats and style of modern R&B and you’ve got none other than the new and very talented artist, Sebastian Mego. He goes by “Sebastian” and already has smash hits such as “You Deserve Better” and “Where I Go From Here” circulating the internet while fans are waiting for his debut album to release this spring. Sebastian describes his music as “that type of music that makes you want to listen to it over and over again.” And that’s no lie—his tracks on MySpace Music have been played over 300,000 times.
Sebastian has always had a love for music and his influences range from Drake and Usher, to older artists such as Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Donny Hathaway. In fact, his respect for Donny runs so deep that Sebastian told Teen Scene, “If Donny Hathaway were still alive I would like to be a fly on his wall because his music has influenced me, and others, in so many ways. Just to be able to be in his presence is something I would do anything for.” Since the age of 16, Sebastian has had the attention of record labels. Finally, his hard work paid off when he was signed to Siri Music Group. Recently Sebastian has accomplished several projects such as performing at the Hague Jazz Festival in the Netherlands, lend his voice to Disney's "Jump In" album, and even contributing to songs on Stevie Wonder's new album, "A Time to Love."
In the next five years Sebastian hopes to accomplish even more great things. When he sat down to talk to us he had this to say about his future: "I hope to see myself respected in the music industry, for not just my singing, but as a composer and writer. I also see myself involved in a couple of charities and probably starting one of my own." Judging by the hard work and determination he has shown so far, we have no doubt that he will achieve all he sets out to accomplish!
