Who
The Hell Is Seth Sentry?
A stoner kid from Melbourne, with a big brain and a creative streak, Seth Sentry’s ability
to create an escape from the mundane workaday life spurred on his urge to
create music and led to the release of his first album This was Tomorrow (2012).
Nation domination quickly followed with a top ten album, huge airplay and
numerous awards. With an iconic voice as warm and familiar as a hug from an old
mate (or a Koala!), the name Seth
Sentry is now synonymous in the Australian hip hop scene with
heartfelt lyrics, nimble rapping and big, boss hooks.
Getting his first taste of international success in the lone star state of
Texas, Seth entered and won a rap battle on the famous Doritos Stage at SXSW
2013. Taking out the battle, Seth not only proved his chops in front of his
first American audience, but also won the opportunity to perform a set between
rap legends Public
Enemy, LL Cool J and Ice Cube. Less than two weeks after his
win at SXSW, Seth Sentry was performing on Jimmy Kimmel Liveto two million
people; spitting rhymes and dodging f-bombs like a consummate professional,
making history as the first Australian hip hop artist to perform on US TV.
After a few years of relentless touring, Seth somehow managed to fit in time to
write and record his next album STRANGE
NEW PAST, due for release June 5 2015. Stowing away his
hoverboard, Seth now has more room to explore issues of his own identity,
introspectively travelling through his own roller coaster imagination to
compile an anthology of stories that document his life, with his trademark
observations, story-telling and humour.
