Revealed to the public in 2006 with promising album This Change is Nice , Sebastian Sturm, young German-Indonesian singer, was elected «Reggae Discovery of the Yea »by the readers of German magazine Riddim. Special guest of Groundation at Zénith of Paris in April 2008, his sensational live performances also brought him to places like the Summerjam in Cologne (D) the Ancienne Belgique in Bruxelles (B) , the Garorock Festival in Marmande (F), and the Caprice Festival in Crans Montana (CH). Another highlight was the show with Rockers Legend Kiddus I at the Reggae Sun Ska Festival in Cissac Medoc (F). In 2009 Sebastian Sturm & JIN JIN will play at the Solidays Festival in Paris (F), the Rototom Festival near Venice (I) and the Ocean Spirit Festival near Lisboa (P) and many more.
Yes indeed, this artist is extraordinary, this artist is incredible for two reasons: his voice and his music! Consequently he developed further his own style of combining classic song writing and authentic Reggae. Sebastian also attaches great importance to authentic lyrics and authentic sound. Fortunately you won..t find any reggae clichés and his last Album One Moment in Peace was strictly recorded with real instruments and similar equipment as used in the Channel One, Motown- and Abbey Road Studios. Even live Sebastian Sturm & JIN JIN bring instruments of the golden Age of Roots reggae on stage.
“I really love travelling through the world because of music. But the best thing is playing at cities where we..ve never been before, and watching people dancing and singing our songs”, says Sebastian.
Sebastian Sturm is the result of a german-indonesian love story. Born 1980 in Aachen, Germany he grew up in the triangle of Holland, Belgium and Germany. He founded his first Punk band at the age of 14 but came from Punk to Ska to Reggae. Sebastian is taking his own way to the top.
