BIOGRAPHY

 

Sean Paddock’s touring career began in 1996 with the then little known artist Kenny Chesney. Sean has been laying down grooves for Kenny since the beginning…. from dingy, smoky clubs of a couple hundred fans to sold out football arenas of 60,000 plus!

Sean has had the pleasure of playing with many rock and country icons such as Sammy Hagar, Steve Miller, John Mellencamp, George Strait, Vince Gill and many, many more. His television appearances with Kenny include shows, like The Grammy’s, Austin City Limits, Sound Stage, ACM’s, CMA’s, AMA’s, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night w/Conan O’Brien, The Late Show w/ Letterman, Good Morning America, and Today Show. When not on the road you may find Sean on sessions with an A list team of players or tracking drums out of his studio for various artists.
