Sean Brennan is a multi-disciplinary guitarist, arranger, and educator hailing from Baltimore, Maryland. He specializes in the arrangement and performance of music that reimagines what the guitar is capable of, with a special interest in percussion music. From concert halls to hospital lobbies to graffitied alleys, Sean performs regularly as a soloist and a chamber musician in the Baltimore area. Recent engagements have included the In The Stacks series, Baltimore Flower Mart, and The Tower Series.

Sean believes strongly in the importance of community engagement, and in using music as a vessel for connection and healing. He was recently selected as an artist for the Sound Rounds program, where he provides bedside music for patients in the Johns Hopkins Hospital system. During his graduate studies, he co-authored the Guitar PD study, which studied the impact of guitar instruction on functional movement and well-being in Parkinson’s Disease. More recently, he has collaborated with Maryland Association for Parkinson’s Support.

As an educator, Sean has extensive experience over a wide range of students and teaching environments. He currently serves on the faculty of Peabody Preparatory, Peabody Conservatory, and Notre Dame of Maryland University. His students have been accepted to the Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University, Penn State University, University of Tampa, and the Interlochen Center for the Arts. Sean completed undergraduate, graduate, and GPD studies in performance and pedagogy from the Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University, where he studied with Julian Gray and Ray Chester.
