Proud dad Sebastian has been working with Archie on his music.
In May, the Australian Idol winner shared a video of them duetting on his new song Maybe.
In the clip Archie, who wrote his own lyrics, is singing as Sebastian plays the guitar in the background.
'My son is like a weapon — he's a proper weapon singer!' Sebastian proudly said on The Hit Network's radio show The Pulse With Seany B in April.
'He wrote this song recently for his grandpa who died, my wife's dad, and we were bawling our eyes out.'
'It was the night before the funeral and he said, 'Dad, I've written this song for Poppa, called Convince You To Stay.''
Going on to play the song, the 43-year-old explained his son hears 'chords' and 'every melody' in his head and is able to sing, write music and play the guitar.
'His intuition and his sensitivity is crazy — he knows how to deliver. He's such an emotional kid,' Sebastian added.
Sebastian spent six seasons as a coach on hit reality TV series The Voice, which returned on Sunday, making him the perfect mentor for his son.
In October last year, the singer-songwriter announced he was stepping back from the role to concentrate on his own music.
'I have made the decision to take a break from the best red chair on the planet. It's been six amazing years as a coach and it's honestly been the best gig ever!' Sebastian shared on Instagram at the time.
'I have nothing but good things to say about the show itself, and sharing the panel with such amazing coaches has been a pleasure.
'It's been a privilege to guide the next wave of Aussie talent alongside the wonderful teams and crew at @channel7 & @itvstudiosaus!
'The best thing about the show is how positive it is and how much care and passion goes into making it a safe place for artists.'
Sebastian, who also shares 13-year-old son Hudson with wife Jules, celebrated the launch of his new album 100 Times Around The Sun in Adelaide, South Australia, on Sunday.
'My home town!! Adelaide it was so wonderful to celebrate the launch of my album with you absolute legends, thanks for coming out and grabbing an album. I love you all,' he posted.
Sebastian will kick off his Australian tour in April 2026.

Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex sign new Netflix contract
Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex have signed a new multi-year contract with Netflix. The couple have inked a deal to continue to produce films, TV shows and documentaries for the streaming giant through their Archewell Productions banner. Harry and Meghan's first offering in their new Netflix contract will be a documentary short about a Ugandan orphanage called Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within, in which they will serve as co-producers on. The duchess is also set to present one-off "magical holiday" special of her cookery and lifestyle show With Love, Meghan in December, which promises to show viewers how to "deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts and share lots of laughs". The couple - who stepped down as working members of the British royal family in 2020 before relocating to California - are also thought to be in "active development" on other projects that "span a variety of content genres", including a feature-length take on the best-selling romantic novel Meet Me at the Lake by Carley Fortune. Meghan, whose As Ever lifestyle brand is run in conjunction with Netflix, said that she and Harry, 40, are "proud" to have extended their partnership with Netflix. The 44-year-old former actress - who was known as Meghan Markle prior to marrying Harry in 2018 - said: "My husband and I feel inspired by our partners who work closely with us and our Archewell Productions team to create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision." Netflix's chief content officer Bela Bajaria said: "Harry and Meghan are influential voices whose stories resonate with audiences everywhere." The new deal has been announced just weeks before the Sussexes' initial five-year contract with the streamer was due to expire and it was previously thought that their contract was unlikely to be renewed. A source told The Sun newspaper last month: "The deal is done; no more shows will be made. Netflix feel they've got all they can from the couple... They're not unhappy with how things turned out — they got those initial hits, and produced one of the most talked-about shows of all time. "There's no animosity from either side. Things have just run their course." Another insider told the Daily Mail newspaper: "They're just waiting for the credits to roll. They're letting it expire without drama. There's no appetite for anything new." The couple initially signed a lucrative deal with Netflix in 2020 and created shows such as the tell-all documentary Harry and Meghan and the duke's sports show Polo.

Brandon Blackstock's cause of death revealed
Brandon Blackstock's cause of death has been confirmed. The talent manager, who was married to pop star Kelly Clarkson from 2013 to 2022, sadly passed away at the age of 48 last week and it has been revealed that he died from melanoma - a form of skin cancer - by Silver Bow County Coroner Dan Hollis. He added to People: "Brandon Blackstock passed away peacefully at his home in Butte, Montana on August 7th under hospice care surrounded by his family." Brandon - who had children River, 11, and Remy, nine, from his marriage to Kelly - died last week after battling cancer for over three years. A statement from a family representative read: "It is with great sadness that we share the news that Brandon Blackstock has passed away. "Brandon bravely battled cancer for more than three years. He passed away peacefully and was surrounded by family. We thank you for your thoughts and prayers and ask everyone to respect the family's privacy during this very difficult time." Blackstock's passing came just a day after Kelly, 43, revealed that her ex-husband was ill and that she would be postponing the rest of her Las Vegas residency dates for August. The Since U Been Gone hitmaker wrote on Instagram: "Unfortunately, I need to postpone the remainder of the August Studio Session dates in Las Vegas. "While I normally keep my personal life private, this past year, my children's father has been ill and at this moment, I need to be fully present for them. I am sincerely sorry to everyone who bought tickets to the shows and I so appreciate your grace, kindness and understanding." Kelly is understood to be "staying strong" for her kids in the wake of Brandon's death, even though the couple's marriage ended in acrimony. A source told People: "Kelly and Brandon had their ups and downs, but at the end of the day, he was the father of her children and she is absolutely heartbroken for them. Her kids are her entire world, and she's staying strong for their sake." The Because of You singer had always tried to remain "classy" for the sake of their kids after learning that Brandon - who served as her manager during their marriage - was seriously ill. The insider added: "When she found out that he was sick, she remained protective of him for their sake. "Kelly has always tried to keep things classy. It became clear earlier this year that Brandon was not doing well. She's been devastated for the kids."

Social media star Trisha Paytas sparks outrage after naming latest baby 'Aquaman' - and you won't believe what her other two kids are called
A controversial YouTuber has been eviscerated by social media over the outrageous name she bestowed upon her newborn son. Trisha Paytas has named her newborn boy Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon after the half-human, half-Atlantean Warner Bros comic book character. The media personality and YouTuber, 37, who rose to internet fame in the early 2000s, welcomed her son last month through a photo of him wrapped in an under-the-sea themed blanket and beanie. Sporting a T-shirt adorned with the character played by Jason Momoa in the 2018 film, Trisha said Aquaman was the "perfect" name for her baby on her podcast Just Trish. She shares the youngest of her three kids with her husband of four years, Moses Hacmon, an Israeli collaborative artist, designer and photographer. 'Not only is it so related to me, but it's also so related to Moses,' Trisha said. 'I've been wearing Aquaman T-shirts for years, I've gone to so many comic-cons for Aquaman. "And I really fell in love when we rewatched Aquaman. 'We watched all the Aquamans, I watched the cartoon, I was watching everything.' But Trisha has pushed baby naming conventions one step too far, her followers say. "You need to be banned from naming a child ever again, Aquaman??" one person wrote on Instagram. "No, because why ruin someone's life with a name like that?" another person said. "This poor child is going to get bullied so hard," one more person said. A fourth person in the comments pointed out to Trisha that the very unusual name for her son would, in fact, still belong to him as an adult. "He's going to be a grown adult, it's not a pet…" they said. However, her eldest children have suffered an arguably worse fate. Her daughters are named Malibu Barbie, two, and Elvis, one. Some fans have suggested her very left-of-centre name choices were merely a ploy to hide the real names of her children and protect their identities. "I have a theory that these names are all fake for the sake of ragebaiting/privacy of her children," one person said, as others agreed. "Need to study her brain to see where she gets these names," said one more bemused person. Trisha first hinted about naming her son Aquaman before he was born, declaring she and Moses would take inspiration from a 'water-themed movie'. The media personality couldn't escape backlash over Malibu Barbie's name either, with some saying the '60s fashion-doll-inspired moniker was "cruel" and "awful". And while the name Elvis was branded "iconic" by some, others disapproved of the "out there" name but liked Ellie or Evie as nicknames.
