SEBASTIAN BACH Talks Career In Television, Uses It "To Promote My Music"

Vocalist Sebastian Back recently spoke with Ultimate Classic Rock about his upcoming February 7th appearance on the show Breaking Band, and his seemingly constant participation in an assortment of television shows. Following is an excerpt from the story:

“Honestly, the way I look at (my appearances on) television is to promote my music,” he says. “I know that’s silly but, to me, the albums last forever, more than any TV show. MTV doesn’t play rock videos, but if I’m on Gilmore Girls, it’s like, ‘Who is this dude? I’m going to check out his albums.’”

Speaking of the soon-to-be revived WB drama, Bach is correct when he says he thinks that fans would love it if his recurring character Gil returned to rock with Hep Alien, the band he played with on the show. “Netflix has given that show a whole new thing,” he says. “I walk around and I always hear about Gilmore Girls.”

“I get noticed for different things in different parts of town,” he says. “If I go to the Rainbow, it’s Skid Row. If I go to a mall, it’s Gilmore Girls. If I walk around in the country of Canada, there is one thing that they like about me and that’s The Trailer Park Boys. Everywhere I go! I just consider myself lucky that I can do different things.”
