About
The entire joint becomes an electrifying revival under the spell of Seán McMahon, the "Rock and Roll King of Martha’s Vineyard," when he unleashes his sonic alchemy. A preacherman who did his time in the Baptist pulpit, McMahon's original songs are freewheeling Americana sermons of the mystical and the mundane, filled with catchy hooks that stick like honey whiskey and soulful lyrics that burrow into your chest. The man is a vocal chameleon, able to sound like every singer he covers—from Johnny Cash to the Cranberries and from Stevie Nicks to Nirvana—and a guitar virtuoso to boot. An utterly unpredictable bandleader, he stirs delightful chaos alongside The Agreeable Men (Ted MacInnes and Chris Knott), where laughter and music collide in a shredful frenzy of deep jams, insane mashups, quirky comedy, and introspective moments that sneak in like whispers. A night with Seán McMahon is a spiritual adventure that will leave a lasting resonance long after the final chord fades.
