Introducing Sean Pawling

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Hailing from South Lake Tahoe, Sean Pawling is a classically trained trombonist turned alternative pop singer-songwriter. After moving to Southern California, Sean released his first EP, Inner Child, in 2011, followed by the expansive Eye for an Eiger LP in 2014. Sean's music evokes the idyllic atmosphere of his hometown, while flirting with the gritty sounds characteristic of the Los Angeles sonic landscape. Powerful horn arrangements paired with unexpected melodies produce a layered, genre-defying result at the intersection of Jason Mraz, Belle & Sebastian, and Cake.

Sean has shared a stage with Matt Costa and written brass arrangements for his song "Ritchie." Sean has also appeared on Sacramento's NPR station Capitol Public Radio multiple times on Insight With Beth Ruyak. His performances have taken him around the country, from Napa to Santa Fe to Nashville.
