Singer, songwriter, author, Broadway star, and actor, Sebastian Bach, will release his new album, Child Within The Man, on May 10 via Reigning Phoenix Music.
In an interview with "Paltrocast" host Darren Paltrowitz, Bach discusses his new album, and recalls the time he spent a flight "talking and laughing" with Van Halen frontman, David Lee Roth. Listen below:
“An album more than 10 years in the making…” That’s how Sebastian Bach describes his new album, Child Within The Man.
The 11-track album was recorded in Orlando, Florida; produced and mixed by Elvis Baskette; engineered by Jef Moll, assistant engineered by Josh Saldate and mastered by Robert Ludwig/Gateway Mastering. Bach wrote or co-wrote all the album’s tracks and sang all lead and backing vocals.
Child Within The Man features guest appearances from John 5, Steve Stevens, and Orianthi - who all co-wrote their respective tracks with Bach - and two tracks co-written with Myles Kennedy (“What Do I Got to Lose?” and “To Live Again"); Devin Bronson on guitars, Todd Kerns (bass) and Jeremy Colson (drums) round out the players on the album.
The album will be available on CD (Jewelcase), cassette and double LP in a variety of color options. Pre-order/pre-save the album here.
The album artwork holds special meaning since it was designed by Bach’s father, noted visual artist David Bierk. “This album artwork was started in 1978 and finished in 2024!” Sebastian says.
Bach adds, “RPM Records has provided me with the ultimate rock 'n' roll fantasy dream come true…to make my ultimate rock 'n' roll record! With the team of players & production on this album, I can honestly say we have made the best record that we could possibly make! The packaging is of the highest standard in every way. The vinyl, cd & cassette formats all have been made to exact specifications! The 45 RPM double gatefold sleeve vinyl editions come in three eco-formats which are the highest standard of vinyl sound. Plus multicolored variations including a Glow in the Dark special for all you rock collectors out there!”
