Background information
Born in New Zealand, Bedingfield grew up in southeast London, UK. Mostly influenced by contemporary R&B artists, his sisters Natasha and Nikola teamed up with him to assemble their first band, called the DNA Algorhythm.

Inspired by a girlfriend from Leeds, Bedingfield recorded "Gotta Get Thru This" in his bedroom with a microphone plugged to his home computer. In December 2001, just a few weeks after "Gotta Get Thru This" was released by the independent Relentless Records, the song went straight to the top on the UK Singles Chart. At the age of 21, he became a local celebrity.

Signed to Polydor UK, Bedingfield worked on some new material and released his first album, Gotta Get Thru This, in the autumn of 2002.

Second First Impression followed in 2005. In 2006, Bedingfield went on an extended hiatus from his career, only working on material for other artists.

In 2012, Bedingfield returned with the single "Rocks Off". That same year he also released the EP Stop the Traffik - Secret Fear.
