Sean Kennedy -July 23 Featured Performer


Occasionally a performer will capture our attention very early on in their music career. This is exactly what happened from the first time we saw Sean Kennedy perform. He was about 14. At that time his style was just emerging, but already quite unique, capturing the audience’s attention with his intimate vocal style and interesting guitar phrasing.

Sean’s now 19. His progression as a musician has added a funkyness to his rhythmic stylings and he delivers them with artistry. As a vocalist, he serves his soul on a platter with breathy sincerity and vulnerability. It literally slows your heart rate and brings all your defenses down. You’ll forget what was on your mind before he started playing and find yourself wanting to hear more after his last note falls away.

Writing songs has become his passion. The sweet simplicity of the message literally floats above the technically interesting guitar work and melodic changes. Get a quick preview at:

  1. Sean has "the gift." Few artists have the ability to take you with them to the place of magic where they journey when they play. It is rare indeed, and it separates the exceptional from the very good.
