Sean McConnell - Secondhand Smoke

"The older I get, the more I find that is what it's all about--that there is no way to answer it all," McConnell says. "Being comfortable with mystery is a positive thing in all aspects of our lives. I definitely explore that in these songs." Secondhand Smoke was produced, recorded and written by McConnell in his Nashville home studio. "These are stories that people are familiar with," adds McConnell, "and they steer the ship in a certain direction, then leave you off at this ocean of possibilities that we didn't plan on the story taking us to." Over his career to date McConnell has written for top artists such as Tim McGraw, Martina McBride, Brad Paisley, Rascal Flatts, Meat Loaf, David Nail, Brothers Osborne, Buddy Miller and Plain White T's.
