That's sorta how Sean pronounces it, but Great Big Sea is from Newfoundland.

A reporter for the Missouri Southern State University didn't figure this out.

***********

For those who couldn't 'Sea' them

In 1993 at New Finland's Memorial University, founding members Alan Doyle, Sean McCann and Bob Hallett formed Great Big Sea.

"We used to sing at the pubs and it was our part time job at the university," Hallett said. "We decided after many years of playing that we would try to do it full time. We'd start a band that would try to take very local, traditional music and try to bring that to a larger audience."

The traditional music of New Finland is a mixture of English, Irish, Scottish and French traditional music.

"The immigrants came to New Finland in the early 1500s and 1600s and there was no more immigration after that," Hallett said. "As a result the tradition was just allowed to live by itself and percolate.

"Because New Finland is so isolated, even now, the tradition just developed a lot of nuances and it took that English-Celtic-French beginning and turned it into something unique."

Yeah, there's more, but that's enough.
