Séan McCann’s love for Newfoundland and Labrador folk songs shot him to international fame as a founding member of Great Big Sea. After millions of albums, countless hit songs, and record breaking tours, Séan realized that his 20 years with the band had to stop. 
In January 2014 Séan released Help Your Self. Séan’s journey continues through You Know I Love You. Produced by Joel Plaskett, and with an original piece of artwork per song by singer/songwriter Meaghan Smith, Séan is trying to find a balance.
