Former Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach has released a music video for “Freedom”, the latest track from his new album, “Child Within The Man”, his first solo effort in 10 years.
The new single by singer, songwriter, author, Broadway star and actor features lyrics by Bach, music by him and John 5 with melody contributions from the album’s producer Michael “Elvis” Baskette. For the video, Bach teamed up with directors Jim Louvau and Tony Aguilera (who directed the album’s three previous clips).
“This is the third record in a row with John 5 writing and playing with me,” Sebastian says. “The song ‘Freedom’ is an homage to my favorite instrument… the cowbell! Which the world needs plenty more of right now!”
From the opening clip of a hearse, the dark, spooky, gothic-themed “Freedom” clip takes viewers on a creepy journey with vampires, grave diggers, gargoyles, aliens and Sebastian rising from the dead (with a cowbell!), along with a sinister nightclub scene and a live band performance; be sure to stay tuned to the end for a special zombie guest star.
“Child Within The Man” was released on May 10 via Reigning Phoenix Music. The LP was recorded in Orlando, Florida; produced and mixed by Michael “Elvis” Baskette; engineered by Jef Moll, assistant engineered by Josh Saldate and mastered by Robert Ludwig of Gateway Mastering. Bach wrote or co-wrote all the album’s 11 tracks and sang all lead and backing vocals.
