Description: ARTIST BIOGRAPHY:
Sean Renner's musical career is somewhat atypical of those in the singing/songwriting masses. Most solo musicians spend their first few years writing and playing out in venues, and creating basement recordings in hopes of someday being discovered and offered a chance to record in a professional studio. Renner, however, began his efforts in the studio, writing and creating several full length albums and EPs.
Renner began writing and recording when he was only 18. Playing the roles of musician, producer, and engineer he completed four full length albums, three EPs, and scores for several short films including a piece for the film “Love Overdue,” winner of the Best Original Score award at the 2005 Greensboro 48-hour Film Competition. After graduating from from Elon University with a degree in film production and philosophy, Renner moved to London, England to record his latest musical masterpiece, “The Blossoms of Armageddon” for the UK-based Urban Sound record label.
Upon returning to the US, Renner focused his efforts on his live performances, using a combination of live instrumentation, vocals, looping, and sampling to create a unique style of music that his listeners describe as Acoustic/Electronic/Experimentation. Renner pushes the limits of the acoustic singer/songwriter paradigm, but yet remains accessible, personal and intimate. His influences range from Radiohead to Beethoven, Bjork to Sufjan Stevens, and he elegantly displays each in a creative blend of musical and technical prowess.
