“If you need me, I’ll be in Wisconsin,” sings Sean Burns, but he's just as likely to be found in Calgary or Ottawa, Tofino or Regina.Touring relentlessly from one end of Canada to the other, Winnipeg-based singer/songwriter Sean Burns taps into the bittersweet spirit of the road and then spins it his way with a blend of electric and acoustic guitars and a soulful harmonica.

Sean's music will resonate with fans of Canadiana, Americana, Folk, Country and Blues alike. The songs, which hint at such influences as Steve Earle, Bob Dylan, and Johnny Cash, capture the grittiness of the road in the stark, down-to-earth style of an authentic storyteller.
