Sean Selig McMahon is a composer-performer. His repertoire spans from renaissance countertenor literature to jazz standards and rock and roll. Throughout his young career, Sean has performed both solo as a folk musician as well as in rock trios and classical ensembles throughout the East Coast and Europe.

 

Sean released a record of original folk music for guitar and voice, titled VIIb. To check out some tracks, www.seansmcmahon.com/music.htm


Sean's distinct sound is a synthesis of his many influences. The songs of Jeff Buckley, Lennon-McCartney, Simon & Garfunkel, and Cat Stevens; the work of jazz greats McCoy Tyner, Thelonious Monk, and John Coltrane; the compositions of Bela Bartok, Guillame Dufay, and especially the choral music of Estonian composer Arvo Pärt.

 

In the past, Sean performed with different groups, including Counterpoint,  2002-2004 and Tidwells Treasure.

Sean recently graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, studying voice with Dominique Eade & composition with Anthony Coleman (John Zorn, Sephardic Tinge, Self-Haters Orchestra).
