Toby Sebastian – Down The Westside
As someone who doesn’t watch Game of Thrones, I didn’t know British actor and musician Toby Sebastian. Truth be told, I also didn’t know any of the movies he starred in but with “Down The Westside” this singer/songwriter is now definitely on my radar. The track comes with so much catchiness and impressive swagger, that is impossible to escape. Oh, and if you’re by any chance playing the multi-million user mobile music game Beatstar you’ll hear the fabulous track there too!
The backstory to Toby Sebastian’s new single is, of course, a very interesting one, as he reveals:
“”Down The Westside’ is one of those songs that came out of nowhere. When Matty Benbrook (producer and cowriter) and I sat down to have a jam with Donny Little (co-writer of Paolo Nutini’s first album and my current guitarist) we exchanged ideas as the song unfolded. It felt so in tune with the rock artists that I grew up listening to – elements of the likes of Bowie, Marc Bolan, and the Arctic Monkeys.”
Toby says further:
“The song is unlike anything I’ve ever written before. Exploring this new sound was a refreshing departure from my usual style and a chance to embrace a different tone. ‘Down The Westside’ to me is a testament to the power of spontaneous collaboration. I feel the song has an energy that is impossible to resist.”
