East Coaster Studios Presents The Shantyman of Great Big Sea, Sean McCann. This will be a birthday bash celebration for Sean and the season finale show for the 2026/2027 series! Come and celebrate with us and help Sean have the best birthday ever as he turns the big 60! Proceeds from this show will go to support OutLoud North Bay.
Order of Canada recipient Séan McCann is a singer, songwriter, and storyteller best known as a founding member of the iconic Canadian band Great Big Sea. Over the past decade, his solo work has carved out a powerful and deeply personal path — one rooted in honesty, recovery, community, and the belief that music is meant to be shared with, not performed for audiences.
His live shows blend original material with beloved favourites, inviting audiences to sing along, reflect, and reconnect with themselves and with one another. In his new S.O.S tour, Sink or Swim — Singing Through the Noise, McCann sings brave new songs alongside trusted classics to speak directly to the heaviness of our times. It’s a show about staying afloat in an increasingly noisy world, finding breath when everything feels urgent, and remembering that collective singing is both grounding and healing.
Whether in churches, theatres, or community halls, Séan’s performances are less about spectacle and more about presence — creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, and a little less alone.
Come as you are. Leave a little lighter. The choice is yours: Sink or Swim.
