SEAN BIENHAUS IN EVERYTHING ALBUM RELEASE WITH GUESTS ABBY ROSE AND LUIZ GRANTE

Sean Bienhaus is an independent singer/songwriter and indie rock artist from Hamilton. As an artist his focus is on honesty, poetry, and storytelling with songs revolving around themes of mental illness, community, love, and resilience. Sean began as a guitarist, playing rock songs with his high school band, but with the onset of lockdown in 2020, he began experimenting with home recording and singing. After putting out his first full-length album in late 2021, (You Won’t Ever Know) he found a real love for music production and went off to study audio production and engineering at the college level, immersing himself in the art of recording. Today he not only writes, records and produces his own music, but also regularly works with other artists on their own projects. Sean plays full-time as a gigging musician — singing, and playing guitar all across Southern Ontario as a one-man acoustic act, playing close to 150 shows in the last year alone at everything from festivals, to bars, breweries, farmers markets, art galleries and more! In 2024, Sean began to put out recorded music again with the release of I Didn’t Know How to Leave, an EP grounded in acoustic and alt rock sounds with themes of tragedy, mental illness and love. He followed this up with a live album recorded at Hamilton’s own Supercrawl a few months later. Since then, Sean has put out a dozen singles, got his live band back together, and is now putting out his sophomore full-length In Everything, an album that not only brings Sean’s music back to its loudest, deepest and most complete, but also dives deeper into the relationships we have with those closest to us, and how they show up “In Everything”. Sean leans hard into all his influences on this album, wearing pop, rock, alternative, experimental and more into an album that features extensive, dramatic and deep productions. The album will be released on November 6 alongside the new band’s debut show at Mill’s Hardware.
