Sebastian (aka Lennon On The Boombox)

Sebastian (aka Lennon On The Boombox)


I am a 27 years old Italy-based singer/songwriter. My name is Sebastian and I’ve always lived among different multicultural realities. Born in the former West Germany, I moved to Sardinia (not the village in Brown County, Ohio but the isle between Italy, Spain and Tunisia) before the wall came down. Here I spent a little time in my grandparents’ house until my parents decided to come back home. When I was seven years old I begged my parents to let me take part in a singing contest. Unfortunately I didn’t win as the odds-on favourite was my sister. The more I grew, the more I needed to express myself by singing and dancing, initially for my relatives only and then, gradually experiencing the stage and its ups and downs. When I was nineteen, I turned back towards my unknown starting point and I went to Heiligenhafen, a small town in the Baltic Sea. I attended some German classes in Hamburg where I lived near the local biggest music shop. Here I spared my time and money to increase my music knowledge: from the holy bibles of rock to some motown anthologies. In February 2007 I've created this account on MySpace but only several months later, I uploaded my first demos. Two of them – catchy staccato-rhythm “The Great Reward” and “AC/DC Love” (with its ambiguous lyrics) – were also released through a virtual record label after they topped the charts of some indie music websites. In October 2008 – always under the stage name of Lennon – I recorded another song, a r&b-oriented acoustic ballad called “Leaving” which I successfully performed live during an intimate gig the year before. This track - released as a free download - peaked at 1 on mp3.com R&B Top10 Downloads. After taking part in a local TV programme where I also sang live, in July 2008 I composed an instrumental for the contest “The Witch Experiment”. This tune called “A Vision in a Dream” was inspired by Coleridge’s poem “Kubla Khan” and of course, by Coelho’s novel “The Witch of Portobello” as well. I've also found the time to finish my first novel in Italian and again, to write new material for my upcoming EP.
