ALBUM-A-MONTH
Sean T Wright began writing, recording, and releasing a FREE album every month in April 2007 and so far hasn't stopped. He views himself as an explorer, whose goal is to find undiscovered songwriting territory, to create lasting Art, in the 21st Century. Part of his vision is freedom in its multitude of forms. He gives all of his music away as free MP3s at Last FM, Jamendo, and Myspace. His songs reflect his inner soul, moving from deeply profound, spiritual lyrics to raging songs about anger & betrayal. He views life as a paradox.
INFLUENCES
With his songs influenced by everything from ambient, country, world & experimental music, classic rock, 70's British Pop to 60's Folk, Wright has achieved critical success & fan-base loyalty with his independent releases. "Impossible" has been downloaded for free over 35,000 times. On the web, Wright has found a growing audience on MySpace, Jamendo, Last FM, garageband, ilike, Facebook and elsewhere. He has in excess of 1.000,000 downloads & plays on his music pages (last update 15 Feb 2012). His first 45rpm vinyl release, Strange Situation, hit BBC Radio 1 airwaves in 1978 on the legendary John Peel Show. The NME hailed Wright as an exceptional DIY artist worth popularizing.
UNITY
"There is so much injustice in this world of ours. We do crazy things to each other. I see it, but cannot ignore it. I write about the stupidity of war & violence, about the futility of unrealistic expections, but I also write songs of protest & peace, of love & joy. If only every one of us could hold one idea foremost in our minds, we might progress beyond the violence & greed: we are one. We are not separate from each other, but united by the same source."
HISTORY
Back in 1976, he worked with Steve Lillywhite, producer of Ultravox, Simple Minds, Morrissey, Talking Heads, and U2. Inspired by Lillywhite, two years later Wright released a power pop single, 'Strange Situation,' (recorded at Spaceward Studios) [1] on the Ellie Jay Record label, London. Wright's songs "Strange Situation" and "Silent Dreams" have appeared on BBC Radio 1 on the John Peel Show and the David Jensen Show in the later 70s and early 80s. In a review in January 1979, the NME's Max Bell called Wright "an enigmatic purveyor of power pop." The Melody Maker was not so impressed, calling the single "a quasi-pseudo filler track."
He co-formed with Maile the1982 Power Pop/Heavy Metal band International Heroes - who were credited in The Encyclopedia of New Wave of British Heavy Metal as a forerunner of the so-called power pop movement, where he was known as Rikki Wright. He toured the UK as the lead vocalist of International Heroes during 1982 and 1983. The band were supported by Marillion.
In 1986, his original songs were published by Peer Music, London, publishers for Buddy Holly, Rihanna, Donovan and many more. He co-wrote with Dave Maile, and Hollywood producer, Kim Fowley, who worked with Kiss, Guns N' Roses, The Byrds, Jimi Hendrix, Mott The Hoople, and recorded the Number 1 sixties hit, Nut Rocker by B. Bumble and the Stingers.
Along with Maile, Sean Wright co-managed the hugely popular all-girl Swedish band, Ice Age, in 1988-90, co-producing their MTV video, 'Instant Justice,' and he co-ordinated their successful European tour, which saw them sell-out the London Hippodrome, the London Astoria, and the famous Marquee Club. The band also featured many times in Europe's music press pages, radio, and TV - voted best all-girl group in the world in 1989 by Kerrang! magazine. "Instant Justice" was played on Richard Branson's short-lived Music Box TV.
Throughout the 90s Wright continued to pen new songs in his lo-fi Static Queen home studio, but his creative output remained private, considered too personal and probing to release to the public domain. He calls this his "most experimental phase musically", and cites poetry and art as his biggest and most lasting influence. Wright's love for experimental music, Sparklehorse, Dada, Surrealism and Absurdist humor are demonstrated in much of his output - especially his absurd video releases, which he acknowledges with a wry grin as "hilariously bad." Though he feeds on every musical genre imaginable, his early work (from 1978 -2005, a staggering 42 album's worth of material) is currently being released onto the internet as free mp3 downloads.
Wright's first article was published in East Anglia Monthly in 1986 - a 1500 word two-page spread on Wright's childhood hero - anti-slavery campaigner, Thomas Clarkson. Wright wrote for many trade journals and magazines, publishing his first children's novel - Jesse Jameson and the Golden Glow - in 2003. Wright became a well-known and successful children's author, named alongside JK Rowling, Philip Pullman, and GP Taylor as an author worth collecting (Book and Magazine Collector - July 2004 and The Guardian daily newspaper - December 2004).
In April 2005, in recognition remarkable sales figures in London's Royal bookshop, Hatchards, Piccadilly, Wright was named one of Hatchard's Authors of the Year. Wright has been a British Fantasy Award finalist 3 times for his excellence in writing within the horror and fantasy genres.
Never one to stand still creatively, in April 2007, Wright embarked on the album-a-month project, writing, recording, producing, and releasing physical CDs and album downloads via CD Baby and Last FM and Jamendo.
Sean Wright played at Trafalgar Square, London, on the 28th July 2007 with Najam Sheraz. The 12,000+ crowd was the largest at the venue since Nelson Mandela's speech on the Abolition of Child Poverty in February 2005. The Pakistan Festival - which celebrated 60 years of independence - was beamed via satellite to millions worldwide by Geo TV. In December 2007, Wright and Sheraz wrote 14 new songs together for a future "spiritual" album project.
The album-a-month project attracted public support from major music industry names, such as Alexander Nevermind, Dan Nash of Just Good Management, Najam Sheraz, Alana Grace, Robin Olson, Roman Klun, Betsy Hammer, Swapmeet Louie, Dana Gaynor, and the legendary harmonica player Jimmy 'Z' Zavala.
