Join us for this inspiring discussion with singer-songwriter, renowned mental health advocate, and recent Order of Canada recipient Séan McCann and wife Andrea Aragon as they share their childhood, the creation of the wildly successful Great Big Sea, and the battle with alcoholism that nearly cost them everything.

Tune in Saturday, December 26th at 8:00pm EST/5:00pm PST for #MomentswithMarianne show with special guests Séan McCann & Andrea Aragon as we discuss her new #book One Good Reason: A Memoir of Addiction and Recovery, Music and Love.

SÉAN MCCANN is a renowned mental health, addiction, and recovery advocate. An Order of Canada recipient for his advocacy of those living with mental health and addiction issues, he has spent the past seven years touring the country as a speaker while singing and sharing his story with front line workers, teachers, students, patients, inmates, veterans, and anyone who has been affected by addiction or abuse. After drinking heavily for over 30 years to numb the pain of childhood abuse, and hiding his dark secret in the drinking songs of one of Canada’s most iconic bands, Great Big Sea, today Séan is sober, he is a survivor, and he has found his true voice. 

ANDREA ARAGON and Séan McCann found each other in 2002. Andrea, all too familiar with the alcoholism and trauma from her father, had battled depression, eating disorders, a suicide attempt, her own heavy drinking, and a divorce by the time she was just 26 years old. She was broken but resilient, and depending on what you believe was destined to meet Séan. https://seanmccannsings.com
