Summary

Pebe Sebert's debut album, recorded in the 1980s, is released after 40 years.

After a 40-year delay, singer-songwriter Pebe Sebert has released her lost debut album. Recorded in the 1980s, the 11-track project was initially shelved due to Sebert's struggles with addiction. The music, created with producer Guy Roche, explores themes of love and purpose and surprisingly mirrors contemporary 80s musical trends resurging in pop culture today.

Sebert's own musical journey deeply influenced her daughter, Kesha, who often processed difficult times through songwriting. This familial connection is highlighted as Sebert's original song "Vampire" became Kesha's lead single for her album, "Gag Order." This collaboration further cemented the bond and creative legacy between mother and daughter.

The release marks a significant personal achievement for Sebert, fulfilling a lifelong dream delayed by life's challenges. The album, "Pebe Sebert," is the first release on Kesha Records, a label founded by Kesha, signifying a proud culmination of their shared musical heritage and Sebert's perseverance.
