SEAN FAUST

Bio:

..   "What music do I listen to to get psyched up for Sean's show? ANYTHING!" - Jim Johnstone 4/25/2009

Singer/songwriter, Sean Faust is an individual with a vision. His songwriting captures the essence of a fresh kind of approach that reels in it's listeners like a fish unknowingly biting it's bait. He brilliantly crafts songs that can be acoustic rock, new-age and all around progressive at the same time. Sean is known for his live shows, which cannot be considered simple entertainment, but an overall fantastic experience. He is inspired by, "Life, sunsets, big skies and large landscapes," and attributes his musical influences to bands like Pink Floyd, Dream Theater, Phish, The Beatles, Live, Rush, Grateful Dead, Yes and many more.

A regular performer at clubs, singer/songwriter friendly bars and even quiet coffee houses, Sean can be seen performing regularly with Slippery When Wet NJ, a premier Bon Jovi tribute band. This band is known to travel extensively in the United States and even Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic. Playing with Slippery When Wet NJ has opened up different avenues of exposure to a legion of fans who may not have even heard him through other outlets.

I'm a music instructor person kinda thingy (guitar and piano/ keyboards). You could say teacher, but I'm not a teacher. Teacher has a positive and negative thing to it. It scares kids. Ha ha. More or less, I'm a friend. A coach.

I'm also a performer. I love writing songs and gigging lots! So.....
First things first, I guess.......
