Sebastian Field is a Canberra-based musician, composer, and producer with over 15 years of experience across songwriting, performance, and experimental sound. He began his career as a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with local bands including Cracked Actor, Burrows, and Julia and the Deep Sea Sirens, touring nationally and earning a nomination for Canberra Best Live Voice at the National Live Music Awards in 2016. Releases from these projects appeared through hellosQuare Recordings (Canberra), Feral Media (Sydney), and Provenance Records (Melbourne).
Since 2018, he has performed and recorded under his solo project, Sebastian Field, releasing three recordings through Provenance Records between 2019 and the present. His work has evolved from ethereal art-rock (Picture Stone, 2019) to bold explorations of ambient and electronic music (Sandcandles, 2021 and Prescients EP, 2022), reflecting a practice that continually experiments with texture, atmosphere, and spatial sound. He has toured nationally and internationally as a solo artist, and in recent years has increasingly focused on ambient, processed guitar to create immersive, textural soundscapes, developing a distinctive voice in contemporary experimental music.
