Guy Sebastian

Bringing depth and grace to all he sings, Guy Sebastian lays claim to one of Australia’s most reliable voices. Born in 1981 in Klang, Malaysia, Sebastian moved to Melbourne (and later South Australia) as a child and began singing in a community church. That helped to shape his sincere vocal approach, which would earn him the top spot on the debut season of Australian Idol in 2003 and yield that year’s highest-selling Australian single in “Angels Brought Me Here.” From there he has glided across modern pop and R&B, as well as paying tribute to classic soul on 2007’s The Memphis Album. Sebastian brought his TV-forged career full circle as a judge on the Australian version of The X Factor, a coach on The Voice Australia and as Australia’s inaugural representative in the Eurovision Song Contest. Through it all, he has drawn deeply on faith and romance as core lyrical themes while delivering convincing emotional authenticity at every step.
