Here's some stuff written about me....until there's something new- I'll add my own take on things at some point!
Sean McCarthy is a solo artist whose songs share the same vein as artists like Edwin McCain & The Goo Goo Dolls. His music has been quoted as “Songs fronted by jangling acoustic strings dwell in the valley of modern radio rock, right next door to Matchbox Twenty Island. Highly prepared, ready-for-heavy-radio-rotation songs also display the talents of a raspy-voiced lead singer.” ....Kali Halloway, listen.com. His live performances consist of highly energetic guitar playing combined with well seasoned vocals.
Currently working on his new full-length CD due out shortly, Sean’s latest release entitled “July” is a collection of three songs highlighting this artist’s versatility. The CD’s co-producer, Todd Bowie, has worked with The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac & most recently, Beck among many other artists. Touring in support of the same release while writing and recording new material, Sean has recently shared stages with artists and bands such as Gary Cherone (Extreme, Van Halen), Brian Vander Ark (The Verve Pipe), David Gates (Bread), O-town, Smile Empty Soul, Larry the Cable Guy and MCA Recording Artists July For Kings, to name a few.
Just coming off of a major sponsorship with Molson Canadian, Sean currently has endorsement deals with Ovation®, Takamine® and Hamer® Guitars.
