SEAL RETURNS WITH SECOND SET OF SOUL CLASSICS, SOUL 2, DUE
FOR RELEASE IN THE U.S. ON JAN 31ST

Seal will release his eighth studio album, Soul 2 in the U.S. on January 31st,
2012, on Warner Bros. Records. The first single “Let’s Stay Together” will impact
radio today and will be available digitally November 1. The collection finds Seal
joining forces once again with legendary producer Trevor Horn (Seal, Seal II,
Human Being) who shares production duties on the album with Soul producer
David Foster (Soul, Commitment). This time Seal brings his silky, inimitable
voice to a lush collection of romantic soul classics primarily from the ’70s,
including those by Marvin Gaye, Bill Withers, Al Green, and Teddy Pendergrass,
among others.

Seal and Horn teamed up in both London and Los Angeles to record
“Lean on Me” (Bill Withers), “Love Here Don’t Live Here Anymore” (Rose
Royce), “Love T.K.O.” (Teddy Pendergrass), “Oh Girl,” (The Chi-Lites), “Ooh
Baby Baby” (The Miracles), “What’s Goin’ On” (Marvin Gaye), “Wishing On
A Star” (Rose Royce). Seal enlisted Foster and Jochem van der Saag to
produce “Back Stabbers” (The O’Jays), “I’ll Be Around” (The Spinners), “Let’s
Stay Together” (Al Green), and “Love Won’t Let Me Wait” (The Delfonics), all of
which were recorded in Los Angeles.

“In my twenty years on a journey in the music industry, two things remain
constants, the voice and more importantly, the song. I continue to make music
because of the chance that this day could indeed be the day I write another great
song or have the opportunity to sing one. The songs on Soul 2 are a natural
evolution in the arc of soul music from the songs on the first Soul album — and
they are all-time classics,” said Seal. “One more very important reason why I
still make music is the ‘gift of collaboration’. I’ve been fortunate to work with two
such industry greats as Trevor Horn and David Foster on this album and I they
continue to inspire me each and every day.”Horn says “Working with Seal is like
making music again….even I’d buy this record!”

“While still reeling from the success of Soul, it was even more exciting to have
the opportunity to record more of some of the greatest songs ever written,”
Foster says. “I am positive fans will not be disappointed in our selection and
again, Seal’s unique, raw, and, yes, sexy approach to these great classics. I
am delighted to share production duties, along with Jochem van der Saag, with
one of my all-time favorite record producers, Trevor Horn. His musical history
with Seal is rich and runs very deep. Together I believe they made some of the
greatest records ever, by anyone. They led, they didn’t follow.”

Released in November 2008, Soul was a hit around the world, earning gold
certifications in Australia, Italy, and Sweden, platinum certifications in Canada,
Switzerland, and the U.K., and double-platinum awards in Belgium and on the
European Album chart. Soul was a Diamond-seller in France where it peaked at
No. 1 on the album chart and remained there for 13 consecutive weeks.

The track-listing for Soul 2 is as follows:

“Wishing On A Star”
“Love T.K.O.”
“Ooh Baby Baby”
“Let’s Stay Together”
“What’s Goin’ On”
“Love Don’t Live Here Anymore”

“I’ll Be Around”
“Love Won’t Let Me Wait”
