It's Official: SEBASTIAN BACH Has 'Gone Country'; First Video Released
September 27, 2008Former SKID ROW singer Sebastian Bach was named the winner of the "Gone Country 2" celebrity competition during the show's one-hour finale which aired last night (Friday, September 26) on CMT. The contestants gave their final performances to determine the winner, which was decided by "Gone Country" host John Rich of the country duo BIG & RICH. Other members of "Gone Country"'s second-season cast were Grammy- and Academy Award-winning singer, songwriter and actress Irene Cara; former "American Idol" fourth-season finalist Mikalah Gordon; former THE JACKSON 5 lead singer and 2007 "Celebrity Big Brother" UK houseguest Jermaine Jackson; ex-N SYNC member Chris Kirkpatrick; actor and former "Are You Hot?" judge Lorenzo Lamas; and actress Sean Young.
Bach filmed a video for the song "One More Battle With The Bottle" with John Rich on September 11 in Hollywood, California. The clip was directed by Wayne Isham, who has a long video history working with METALLICA, QUEENSRŸCHE, JUDAS PRIEST, OZZY OSBOURNE, MÖTLEY CRÜE, BON JOVI, and DOKKEN, among others.

"One More Battle With The Bottle" is a track that Bach penned with two Nashville songwriters — Vicky McGehee and Jeffrey Steele — and that he sang at the finale of "Gone Country 2".
The show's second season followed a similar format to its first season, as each episode followed the cast as they competed against one another in challenges that tested their ability to musically and physically adapt to the country-crooner lifestyle. In addition, each cast member was paired with two Nashville songwriters, who assisted them in penning lyrics and music for a country single, which they then had the opportunity to perform.
