October 4, 2016I was looking a guitarist to do something non traditional for our vow renewal & Sean was fantastic to work with. He gave me great suggestions & was patient & helpful while I was putting it together. His playing was beautiful.

September 27, 2016We hired Sean Thomas Gerard to sing at our wedding in September 2016. It was absolutely beautiful. We trusted Sean to play any music he wanted and we could not have been happier. Everything he sang was wonderful including our "first dance" song which we did request. His music was so touching and personal. Everyone was asking who he was and where he played locally. His voice was lovely and his guitar playing was superb. We want to have another wedding or party just so we can hire him again! I would recommend Sean to anyone wishing to add a very personal touch and beautiful sound to their wedding and cocktail hour. Job well down! Thanks Sean!

American singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Sean Thomas Gerard was born in Pittsburgh, PA, and currently resides in Wilmington, NC. He's spent the last six years touring with Onward, Soldiers and has released two albums with the band on Winoca Records. Critically celebrated 2010's "Ghosts in this Town" is a compelling blend of unadulterated rock and haunting prose. While 2012's "Monsters" delivers the unexpected twists and turns of cleverly-crafted musicianship mixed with devilish style and endearing lyricism. Their third album, “Daydreamer” is expected to release in the fall of 2015. Sean was featured on the show One Tree Hill, has played various music festivals around the country including CMJ, SXSW, 35 Denton and Hopscotch, had his song "Let The Time Roll By" on the compilation CD "Gasoline Rainbows" by Vagrant Records, and was featured on Nashville's Music City Roots. He also can be seen on PBS's Sun Sessions, filmed at Sun Studio in Memphis.
When performing solo, Sean's songs are stripped bare, exposing his keen sense of melody and songwriting craftsmanship. He delivers his songs with great intensity and undeniable sincerity. His catchy, yet haunting tunes, chocked full of dreamy lyrics and clever observations, will stick with you for days. He can sing you to sleep, or wake you from the dead with his dynamic vocal stylings. Sean’s first solo endeavour, titled “Great Unknown” released August 11th of 2015.
