He may be an ARIA award-winning artist, but even Conrad Sewell isn’t immune to a stroke of bad luck. 

The multi-platinum-selling singer has just released new music ahead of his highly-anticipated second album due to release early next year.

Mark Hine: “Speaking about releases… God Save the Queen – that was unfortunate timing on your behalf!”

Conrad Sewell: “Yes it was…”

Mark Hine: “It was released just before the Queen’s passing?”

Conrad Sewell: “Yes, it wasn’t the best timing. Just before, so 12 o’clock, the song came out on Spotify and everywhere, all around the world.

“And I think three hours later, they announced that the Queen had passed..!”
