BURBANK, CA–(Marketwire – July 29, 2010) –  Internationally acclaimed vocalist and songwriter Seal will release his sixth studio album, “Seal 6: Commitment,” in the U.S. on September 28^th
on Reprise Records. The first single is “Secret,” a deeply moving,
string-laden ballad, that ranks among Seal’s finest love songs.
“Commitment“ finds the London-born, three-time Grammy Award
winner re-teaming with renowned music maestro David Foster, who also
produced 2008’s “Soul,” Seal’s stunning covers collection of soul
classics.

“I asked David to produce ‘Commitment‘ because quite
simply, he’s the most incredible person I’ve worked with in the studio
for a very long time,” Seal says. “He’s one of a kind. I don’t think
there’s an arranger and producer anywhere on the planet who can do what
he does.”

Foster is equally complimentary of Seal. “His voice is so
unique and he has such command of it — his tone and musicality are
unequaled,” Foster says, adding that Seal was on a mission while in the
studio making “Commitment.” “He was in fearless, relentless pursuit of
greatness — no one was going to obscure his path. The album is full of
beautiful musical surprises and his songwriting has never been better.
He says it may be his best work yet and I think he may be right.”

“When all things in your life begin to align in the way they
have for me over the past few years, you become incredibly focused,”
Seal explains. “I love a challenge, and this for me, has been the
greatest challenge of my career: to write an album that exceeds my own
expectations.”

While showcasing Seal’s one-of-a-kind husky baritone, ear for
unforgettable melodies, and unique lyrical point of view, songs such as
“Secret,” “The Weight of My Mistakes,” “Best of Me,” and “If I’m Any
Closer,” delve into the emotions surrounding love, family, and
commitment, hence the title. “Everything about my life is fully
committed,” he says. “I’ve never felt more focused on the matter at
hand: My wife, my children, the family in general, my own well-being,
and of course music and my career. Each one of these songs has personal
meaning for me. I dug very deep and all I can hope for is that the music
strikes a chord with people.”

Over the course of a remarkable career that spans more than
two decades, Seal has sold more than 15 million albums worldwide and
enjoyed success across numerous genres of music. His emotional, romantic
love songs such as “Prayer For the Dying,” the Grammy Award-winning
“Kiss From A Rose,” and “Don’t Cry,” (all from 1994’s Seal II), and “Love’s Divine” (from 2003’s “Seal IV“),
delighted fans and earned him critical acclaim. He has also seen great
success in the dance/pop music world beginning with his roots in
Britain’s house music/rave scene with his debut 1991 album and returning
to those roots with 2007’s dancefloor-friendly “System.” In 2008, Seal
released “Soul” — a stunning compilation of classic soul songs
delivered with Seal’s unique, signature touch. A No. 1 album in France,
“Soul” remained atop the album chart for 13 consecutive weeks.
