cover story nathan taylor caught up with our last `australian idol winner stan walker about his brand new album his troubled upbringing and cracking it in the music business 3 t stan walker sets a fast pace album `from the inside out the record debuted at number two on the aria albums chart and spawned the smash hits `unbroken `choose you and `homesick all doing well on both the aussie and kiwi charts stan said `let the music play is far more upbeat playful and fresh in comparison to the `deeper tracks on `from the inside out the last album was more serious and showed the deeper parts of me he said this one still shows all the depths of me but also me as a 21-year-old ­ the young crazy and fun side definitely comes out in `let the music play he said stan recorded much of `let the music play over in the united states and was lucky enough to work with some of america s biggest producers and musicians stan said he took a lot away after working alongside the same people who have made lady gaga justin timberlake and lil wayne some of the world s biggest stars it was a really interesting and amazing experience to work with all those talented people he said a lot of people get let down sometimes when they see who they ve worked with because they might not have that same experience as you so i went in with the same attitude and the same goal just to write something really good and it turned out unbelievably well for me featuring the hit singles `loud and `light it up the album also features a number of duets including fellow `australian idol alumni jessica mauboy with the current radio smash `galaxy the other is with his mum april walker in a remake of the classic eva cassidy hit `songbird the first time i heard `songbird my cousin and uncle sang it and i loved it straight away stan said after hearing eva cassidy s version it became one of my favourite songs ever and i ve never really heard a beautiful song quite like it the thing about old school songs like that is when they talk about love it s real love stan said his mother was absolutely thrilled when he approached her to sing with him on one of their all-time favourite songs my mum loves the way the song turned out she actually had a cry the first time she heard it he said i m really family-orientated and was brought up in a big family who were always together so i just had to find the right song to finally get my mum on one of my cds despite `australian idol no longer airing in australia there are still plenty of platforms for talented singers and entertainers to crack the big time with top-rating shows like `the x factor and `australia s got talent taking over from where `idol left off stan said even though tv talent shows give you an amazing kick-start in the industry in terms of the music contract and instant fans once the cameras are switched off the hard work to prove yourself in the `real music world only just begins it s a really difficult challenge because we are put on such a loose platform that we need to sustain ourselves he said it s all about hard work and it s definitely much tougher than people think despite being nominated for several aria awards and so far taking none home stan said it doesn t bother him that people don t give him the recognition he deserves just because he came from a tv talent show it doesn t upset me because sometimes a lot of people don t even know what they re talking about he said as long as i know and the people around me know then that s all that matters his country s last ever `australian idol winner stan walker had a life changing moment the night he won one of australia s biggest singing contests in 2009 it wasn t just the beginning of a lucrative music career for the then 19-year-old but it was the official ending of a dangerous and violent upbringing that stan once compared to the 1994 new zealand film `once were warriors stan described his life growing up as a rugged upbringing he was surrounded by drugs and alcohol a violent and abusive father domestic violence and poverty all this turmoil lead to stan smoking marijuana stealing and hanging out with the wrong crowd at 15 stan decided to change his life and turned to god he started going to church and found his passion for music stan said winning `australian idol not only changed his life in terms of career but in terms of putting his destructive past behind him to finally provide a better home life for himself and his family winning `idol gave me the strength that i ve really needed to get through the hard times at home as well as in my career and this industry he said the win was a big testimony for our family not just for me but from where we ve all come from today almost two years since winning `idol stan walker releases his third and most fun album to date with `let the music play the new album is a declaration of a celebration stan said it s representing who i am and where i am at this point in time in my life and musically as well in 2010 stan released his second my mum loves the way the song turned out she actually had a cry the first time she heard it fyi issue 61 editor troy dodds troy.dodds@mediaview.com.au
