The Story
Well - it's more than a bio - it's life! I don't know how to do anything but sing and make music! I have been doing it since I was singing at camp, to my tent mates. I am sure they thought I was nuts and maybe I am. I think you need to be nuts to pursue a career in the arts in America. You have to be driven, or you give up. I feel alive when I am on stage, playing my own music, or playing other people's stuff too! I am lucky to play 200 or more gigs a year, and I have had music in film and on TV.
I have played all over the US and have made friends all over the US - all sorts of people - and I must thank fans and reviewers who make it all worthwhile! YOU make me smile! THANKS!
Yep I was Born in New York, I live in LA, and tour everywhere in between..... Now for the formal bio ---
Sean Wiggins has honed her skills as a rock/country goddess with a blues edge.
With over 100 songs in her catalog, this award winning performer and writer has had tunes on TV, in films and on the radio both nationally and internationally. Live, her dynamic stage presence, humorous banter, powerful vocals and insightful lyrics, are completely captivating. Sean was first place winner of The Billboard Song Contest for R&B/Blues in addition to many more awards and special mentions.
Sean has been touring the US in support of her last five releases, playing clubs, festivals and colleges in Nashville, Chicago, New York, Atlanta, Boston and numerous other cities throughout the US. CBGB's in NYC to The Bluebird in Nashville to the Troubador in LA.

Sean performed in the LA theater production, "Sordid Lives", as Bitsy Mae. The play, soon to be a TV series on the LOGO channel, traveled to Palm Springs, San Diego and Dallas, in addition to its LA run.
Also, Sean was featured in Curve Magazine July/Aug 2006 & you can find her music in Gillery's Little Secret, an award winning short film.
I just saw you in 30 years walking alongside the Chicago River. I swear to God, black vest and all. I almost yelled out but then realized that she could be your mother...
