75. Sean&Mary Susan McConnell - a podcast by Michael Franti

Since releasing his first album independently at just age 15, GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter and producer Sean McConnell now has a robust catalogue under his belt, including songs recorded by artists like Little Big Town, Tim McGraw, Martina McBride, Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts, Brothers Osborne, Christina Aguilera and more. Sean earned his first Number 1 single as a writer on the country charts with Brett Young’s “Mercy" in early 2018, and his objective with his most recent album as an artist titled A Horrible Beautiful Dream is to reflect the chaotic time in which it was made, while still striving for timelessness.

Mary Susan McConnell is the host of the popular Mama Bear Podcast, a space she created for fellow women raising children in profound circumstances and author of the ebook, We're Going to Have Fun Damnit: Transparent Tales of Thriving & Struggling in the Extreme Circumstances of Special Needs Parenting. As a former middle school teacher, she holds her Master's in Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment and a Doctorate in Special Education.

Sean and Mary Susan live in Nashville, TN with their magical daughter Abiella (who happens to have severe cerebral palsy), their amazing dog and two pigs.
