Conrad Sewell finds his funky heart on 'Precious'

Jeff Jenkins

STACK Writer

"And I finally found my sound,” Conrad Sewell declares on his second album.

The opening track, with its subtle nods to The Beatles, Stones, Prince, and Queen, is a neat summation of that sound.

For the most part, Sewell is a funky soul man, but he’s also capable of delivering a straight-out pop-rock belter – check out Make Me a Believer – as well as a big pop ballad (Rolling Thunder).

He’s also not afraid to deal directly with his demons; “I drank away all of my self-esteem,” he confides in Ego. The album culminates in the title track, which is part confession (“You can call it self-destruction”), part plea (“Don’t hate me if you don’t know me”), and part defiance: “I’m not giving up”.

Yep, the strength of Precious shows that Conrad Sewell is definitely here to stay.

Precious by Conrad Sewell drops via Sony.
