KEYNOTES
Séan believes that music is strong medicine and a song is never more powerful than when it is sung with a friend. SING + SHARE = SURVIVE is a 60 minute mental health themed musical KEYNOTE presentation that features 5-6 songs on guitar and bodhrán and focuses on how music can act as a powerful tool to help us maintain our mental resilience through difficult times in our lives.
"The truth is the only thing that sets us free. Music is the vehicle I use to deliver it."
— Seán McCann
