Seán Barna

In May 2023, SEÁN BARNA released his LP, An Evening at Macri Park, on the iconic indie label, Kill Rock Stars, to widespread critical acclaim from outlets such as NPR, Pitchfork, FLOOD Magazine, and Billboard. In their review of the LP, Pitchfork offered comparisons to Leonard Cohen, Harry Nilsson, and Rufus Wainwright, writing, "this is raucous, messy, and emotionally rich music, as any art about queer nightlife ought to be." The visceral, intense performances Seán has become known for are animated by the evocative honesty of his songwriting and rooted in a vulnerable, intimate relationship with the audience. His most recent single, a refreshing cover of the Counting Crows song, “Mr. Jones,” was a surprise birthday present to his friend and Counting Crows frontman, Adam Duritz. In the summer of 2021, Seán opened Counting Crows on their 22-date national tour.
