Description

In a remarkable career that spans more than two decades, Seal has garnered countless accolades along with three Grammy Awards and has sold more than 15 million albums worldwide. Known for his one-of-a-kind soaring, husky baritone voice and classic songwriting, Seal has seen success across numerous genres of music. His emotional, romantic love songs, such as Prayer For the Dying, the Grammy Award-winning Kiss From A Rose, and Don t Cry (all from 1994 s Seal II), and Love s Divine (from 2003 s Seal IV), delighted fans and earned him critical acclaim. But Seal has also seen great success in the dance/pop music world beginning with his roots in Britain s house music/rave scene. Early in his career he scored two hits with legendary producer Trevor Horn, 1990 s Killer (with techno artist Adamski) and 1991 s U.S. Top Ten single Crazy, from his eponymous debut album - a genre-defying fusion of soul, pop, rock, R&B, and propulsive grooves that announced the arrival of an innovative new talent. His fifth studio album in 2007, System was a nod to those roots with shimmering melodies, glistening layers of synths and acoustic guitar, and up-tempo electronic beats. Now the London-born Seal is preparing to release his sixth studio album, what many consider the tour-de-force of his career. Produced by renowned music maestro David Foster, SOUL, due in November from Warner Bros. Records is a stunning compilation of the best classic soul songs ever created, with Seal s unique, signature touch. The songs each evoke an era when soul music vividly captured emotion, drama and romance. Seal has said, What I care about now is the same thing I cared about in the beginning of my career, which is songs.
