Anson Long-Seabra (born 25 August, 1994), known professionally as Anson Seabra, is an American singer and songwriter. He performs piano-driven pop songs with themes on mental health, fairy tales and heartbreak.
Seabra was born in Wichita, Kansas. At the age of seven, he started taking piano lessons and later played in school bands, such as his high school marching band, Blue Springs High School Golden Regiment. After high school he pursued a computer science degree at Truman State University while continuing to write and record his own songs.[1]
After graduating in college, he took a job as a software engineer in Virginia, but would later return to Kansas City to focus on music.[1] In 2018, he left his job and began posting songs on TikTok. These included a few songs from his 2020 full-length debut Songs I Wrote in My Bedroom.[1] [2] The album included the single "Trying My Best". He was signed to a record label after the release of his 2018 single "Welcome to Wonderland".[3]
Seabra's single "Robin Hood" has become one of his most streamed songs on Spotify, with over 108 million plays to date.[4] The song is about feeling used in a relationship and realizing that you deserve better. Seabra compares the relationship to the tale of Robin Hood, in which his former partner took all of his best parts and then gave them to someone else once they were finished.[4]
Seabra's "Welcome to Wonderland" has roots in a different fantasy setting. The lyrics, written in a solemnly juxtaposed minor key, revolve around the enchantment of Alice's journey down the rabbit hole and her playtime adventures with the Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat.[5] [4] This song has garnered over 220 million plays to date on Spotify, making it Seabra’s most streamed single.
