Sebastian Bach recently opened up about a song lyric that has stuck with him throughout his life. In a chat with Whiplash about his upcoming solo album ‘Child Within The Man,’ he shed light on the inspiration behind the title.
Reflecting on his personal journey and career, Bach revealed the lyric that has continually resonated with him:
“You know, my wife affectionately calls me a man-child, and that’s kind of been a running theme for me. When I hit the stage, there’s this youthful energy I bring that gets people smiling, cheering, and just generally amped up. But there’s this one line from a song on the album, ‘child within the man,’ that just grips me every time I belt it out. It’s like it’s been haunting me.”
Keeping mum about the album hasn’t been a walk in the park for Bach. Since his last full-length release in 2014 with ‘Give ‘Em Hell,’ the anticipation for his new work has been mounting. Scheduled for release on May 10, Bach couldn’t contain his excitement, expressing how tough it’s been to keep things under wraps:
“I’ve poured years into this project, and let me tell you, it’s been a real challenge for me to stay tight-lipped about it. But the wait is almost over, folks. I’m making a comeback, and I hope you’ve all been eagerly waiting.”
Bach’s new album boasts collaborations with heavy hitters like John 5, Steve Stevens, and Orianthi, with two tracks co-penned by Myles Kennedy. Devin Bronson, Todd Kerns, and Jeremy Colson also make appearances, adding to the album’s allure. Ahead of the full release, Bach tantalized fans with singles like ‘What Do I Got To Lose?’ and ‘Everybody Bleeds.’ You can check out the latest single below for a taste of what’s to come.
