Séan McCann (the Shantyman) is a founder of the iconic Canadian band (thirteen time Juno nominee) Great Big Sea and an Order of Canada recipient for his advocacy for people living with addiction.
Born “around the bay” in his native Newfoundland, Séan was steeped in traditional Irish music and you can hear its influence throughout the multitude of recordings he has released over his 35 year career.
Music is medicine and a song is never more powerful than when it is sung with a friend. So come out and singalong with Séan for his third annual celebration of Irish song and skip the hangover this year!
