Wolf gang band biography wife

Nearly twenty-five years ago, Sebastian 'Basti' Artadi began singing for a band called Wolfgang. Four years later, Wolfgang would hit double platinum sales for their second album Semenelin , landing numerous awards for the band, and, shortly after, head abroad to release an all-English version of the album—only to repeat the same feat with their third album the following year.

Today, after relocating to America and then back home again, the iconic vocalist has successfully expanded his portfolio to include a solo music project, several album collaborations including one with a band in Southern California , an art exhibit, and a couple of musical plays. We caught up with with Basti to learn more about some of these projects and what else he currently has in store.

You've been doing gigs as solely Basti Artadi for a while now, and earlier this month, you launched a shirt along with your new single. Can you tell us more about the inspiration for both the shirt and your song, 'Rally of the Down'? Yes, I told myself I was going to open myself up to as many projects as I can for as long as I felt they were interesting to me.

I also wanted to use that time to focus on some material I have of my own as well as work with some new musicians like Marco De Leon Paramita who I'm finding is a great source of inspiration for me musically. It was just a little sketch that started with D and G, that never got the attention it needed. When I showed it to Marco, he saw the potential and we worked on it until it became the song that it is.

It's also coincidental that the message of that song is very timely with how I feel people are feeling these days.
