A new streaming record on Spotify, a new view record on YouTube, and even occasionally heard on “Radio 88.6”: This is “Endless Summer” by “SEBi.” Burgenland’s pop punk legend had the feeling while writing that this song could be a hit, as it is very close to the mainstream and thus appeals to people who are not fans of pop punk.

And even though this success brings a certain pressure on the artist’s shoulders, Sebastian explained that the numbers, the views on YouTube, the streams on Spotify, as well as the many messages he receives from international fans, motivate him.
New music, new shows – This is the future of “SEBi!”
“SEBi!” mentioned that he plans to release several singles this year, and that fans can expect a new album sooner or later. “Since I don’t do this as a full-time job, I have to take extra time for it,” said the musician. Apart from new music, “SEBi!” also had several performances this year, including a very special one in Linz as support for the Americans “Zebrahead.”

“Sharing a stage with such people, having a beer after the performance, and being told by such people that you have a great stage presence means a lot,” Sebastian shared about his experiences. And for next year, the singer hopes to play as many shows as possible. “As someone from Burgenland, you have to play at ‘Nova Rock’ at some point. I haven’t managed that yet; I don’t quite understand it because we have the potential,” he joked.

With his performances, a new merchandise collection was released, which the musician designed himself. He promises to continue bringing new items to the market in the future. “SEBi!” pursues his passion for pop punk and has remained true to himself since the beginning of his musical career. “And I want to do this until I’m eventually buried,” he tells.

Additionally, the emergence of artist-designed merchandise highlights an important aspect of fan engagement. Musicians are taking an active role in their branding and identity, with unique merchandise collections becoming an extension of their artistic expression. As seen with SEBi!, who plans to release new items regularly, this approach allows for deeper connections with fans and creates a new revenue stream.
The ambition to perform at major festivals, such as “Nova Rock,” represents the aspirations of many emerging artists. These platforms not only provide significant exposure but also establish credibility within the music community. As local talents seek to share stages with international names, the recognition of their potential may lead to an exciting era of diversity and innovation within the live music scene.
In conclusion, the trends in live music, streaming success, acoustic performances, and personalized merchandise design are shaping the future of the music industry. Artists who can navigate these evolving landscapes are poised to thrive as they continue to foster connections with their audiences.
