A performance by Sean McGaughey is hard to define.
Is he a singer-songwriter of wit and political insight?
Is he a children’s entertainer who gets children young and old to singing and dancing?
Is he a performer of humorous and satirical songs?
Is he an interpreter of the best in traditional and contemporary folk and country music?
Is he that guy over there in the duct-tape hat?
For decades, Sean McGaughey thought he was a folk singer songwriter with a fascination with nerdy themes such as jet cars, drones, robots and duct tape. In 2013 he discovered the world of Filk Music in 2013 and found an outlet for his nerdy and folky sides. Sean is a singer-songwriter, entertainer, podcaster, and elementary educator based in Simcoe County Ontario. Since 2013, he has been an active participant in the annual FAWM and 5090 songwriting challenges. For over 25 years he has performed throughout central Ontario.
