Sean McCann of Great Big Sea - Wednesday, June 9th - 9 PM - $25

I first met Sean McCann (believe it, or not) in a kitchen in St. John's, Newfoundland in the mid-eighties when I first started working for MuchMusic. Obviously that was a fortuitous place for a first meeting, given the career Sean and his friends have carved out over the years in Great Big Sea!

We've shared a lot of times over the years but I don't see him much anymore now that the band is such a big deal and his family man responsibilites keep him home a lot of the time. So, it was with great pleasure that I heard he was interested in playing The Carleton in support of a new solo album that's ready for public consumption.

Here's a clip from that show:
