Seán Lyons, from Co. Clare, grew up in a family steeped in traditional music and singing and he is an accomplished multi-instrumentalist and singer. As a teenager, Seán developed an interest in folk music and is a passionate interpreter of folk songs. It was during this period that he also began writing songs. In 2020, Seán released his debut single Lady Winter and in 2021, he followed this with Finavarra Reverie. His most recent single ‘One Day at a Time’ muses on the average person’s frequent encounters with self-criticism, anxiety and a sense of hopelessness. Seán’s debut EP of original songs Juliana EP was released on February 3rd 2023. It is a collection of five songs written in the folk idiom. The title track, Juliana, is a poignant lament for La Juliana, a Spanish ship that was wrecked off the coast of Sligo in 1588.
