NEW RELEASE: Unwanted Man: the debut full length album by Sabastian Roberts
Unwanted Man combines powerful songs composed by some of the country music industry’s most innovative writers with tributes to hits by music industry legends, as well as work created by the artist himself.
Featured on Unwanted Man is a stirring duet called Dress For The Rain which sees him team up with country music superstar Lorrie Morgan. Released as a single in February 2010, radio stations in the US have made themselves heard and have voted with their feet: Within days of release, Dress For The Rain reached Number One in radio station Airplay downloads and has without doubt put Sabastian Roberts on the map.
Sabastian Roberts brings us some out-and-out country rock with his new album Unwanted Man. Unwanted Man is a collection of feel good country rock tunes that will make you want to jump up and down and sing along.
On Unwanted Man, Sabastain Roberts includes a variety of songs in all country genre forms thinkable. By this I mean, he does not stray from country but merely manipulates and twists it into different styles for certain songs. “Free Wheelin’” for example, is a feel good country rock track, while “The Faith I Have In You” is a slow and soulful country gospel song. “It’s Still Country,” as its name suggests, is a downright pure country tune. As a result of this variety, the album is unpredictable and impossible to become bored of.
Now, I’m not much of a fan of this genre, but I have never enjoyed a country album as much as I have Unwanted Man. As soon as I clicked play, I was nodding my head along to the upbeat rock rhythms and Roberts’ raw and folksy voice.
This album is fun, upbeat and an absolute phenomenon for devout country music fans worldwide.

SABASTIAN ROBERTS/It’s Still Country to Me Writer: Gary Nicholson; Producer: Mark Oliverious; Publisher: Gary Nicholson/Sony ATV Cross Keys, ASCAP; Homage/Spinville (www.sabastianroberts.com) —Yes, I know that’s not how most people spell “Sabastian.” This is, however, how most people in contemporary Nashville music seem to think: If you fuse Hank and Van Halen, you’re still “country.”

“Sabastian has burst onto the scene from seemingly nowhere and his debut album, "Unwanted Man" is a sensational piece of work, featuring a hit duet with none other than Lorrie Morgan on a song called "Dress For The Rain." ... He combines country and rock with ease and with veteran producer Mark Oliverius at the helm he is certainly onto a winner.” -Stuart Cameron, Hotdisc Ltd (May 07, 2010)
