All I Know is the debut
extended play (EP) by Australian singer
Conrad Sewell. It was released on 13 November 2015 by 300 Entertainment.[1]
Recorded in
Los Angeles, the EP is the result of sessions working with an all-star team of writers and producers, including
Jamie Hartman, Jacob Kash and
Sean Douglas.[2]
Background
Conrad Sewell became internationally recognised in early 2015 when his collaboration with
Kygo, "
Firestone", went top 10 in
France,
Germany and the
United Kingdom. The Australian singer capitalised on the buzz by dropping debut single "
Hold Me Up" and landed a modest top 40 hit in his home country. However, the 27-year-old later topped the chart with the ballad "
Start Again". His debut EP was announced in October along with the release of "
Who You Lovin".[3]
Reception
Marcus Floyd of Renowned for Sound gave the album 4 ½ out of 5, saying; "All I Know is a stunning debut EP that shows listeners just what Sewell can do with that phenomenal voice of his. It's diverse too with a balanced amount of ballads and pop numbers and it ends with you wishing it was a full-length record."[4]
Hannah McKee of Stuff.co.nz gave the album 2 ½ out of 5, saying; "There seems to be two sides to this album, The intimate, piano ballad 'Start Again' represents the softer, almost gospel side, followed by '
Remind Me'. Other songs have a
Michael Jackson-esque, funky pop flavour to them. All I Know is a quintessential pop album that will do well on the radio waves, but an extra risk or two would not have gone astray."[5]
