2025 Short Bio

Séa Byrne is an Irish singer, songwriter, and producer whose music blends indie, soul, tropical rhythms, and the darker edges of alt-rock—sometimes all at once. Originally from Dublin and now based in Guadalajara, México, he creates a cross-cultural sound shaped by Irish storytelling and the Latin American influences that have defined his life and work.

His musical roots trace back to childhood, studying voice at the Leinster School of Music before developing as a guitarist and writer. A pivotal moment came in 2019 while studying Spanish in Cartagena, Colombia, where he immersed himself in Afro-Caribbean styles and recorded his first professional track with local producer IFO, sparking a lasting connection to Latin rhythms. Séa moved to Puerto Vallarta in 2022 and worked with producer Carlos “Charlie” Santana to complete Blue Skies, his debut album blending indie pop, soul, and tropical influences around themes of love, resilience, and hope.

In 2025, Séa shifted toward the alt-rock and dark-pop sound that had always been part of his creative DNA. Working with producer Daniel Aceves in Guadalajara and continuing with Charlie, he released Catching Up, What You Lost, and Eternity—tracks defined by emotional urgency and a more cinematic edge. Liberation reached #1 on the AltQ Top 20, boosting his visibility in queer alternative music.

With 19 singles, 3 EPs, and 1 album, Séa continues to craft genre-fluid music rooted in emotion, identity, and cross-cultural storytelling.

Séa Byrne – Artist Bio Full Length

Séa Byrne is a dynamic singer, songwriter, and musician from Dublin, Ireland, now based in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Known for blending indie, soul, and tropical influences, Séa merges Afro-Caribbean rhythms with indie pop, indietronica, and soulful melodies. His music draws from his diverse influences, including My Bloody Valentine, Sufjan Stevens, Bomba Estéreo, and his deep connection to Latin American culture.

Musical Journey and Evolution

Séa’s musical journey began at age 8 when he started singing and later studied voice at the Leinster School of Music in Dublin. After years of writing and playing guitar, Séa shifted to a career in design, while keeping music as a personal pursuit. In 2019, while studying Spanish in Cartagena, Colombia, Séa was immersed in Colombian music and culture. It was during this time that Séa reached out to local producer IFO, and together they professionally recorded That’s Why I Love You — the first track in Séa’s exploration of Latin influences. This collaboration marked the beginning of his journey into Latin rhythms and sounds, which would soon become integral to his evolving musical style.

As Séa developed his sound, he collaborated with several talented producers. He worked remotely with Charles Connolly (UK) and Thomas Juth (Sweden), who helped with the mixing and mastering of several tracks, further refining Séa’s music into a smooth blend of indie, pop, soul, and tropical influences.

In 2022, Séa moved to Puerto Vallarta, where he met Carlos “Charlie” Santana, a producer who played a pivotal role in refining Séa’s debut album Blue Skies. Over the course of a year, Charlie helped remix and remaster the album’s tracks, culminating in a cohesive collection of 14 songs and vignettes. Blue Skies is an uplifting fusion of Irish storytelling and Latin rhythms, exploring themes of love, hope, and personal growth, with an emphasis on overcoming life’s challenges and embracing change.

In 2025, Séa Byrne entered a bold new phase of his musical evolution. Moving beyond the soulful, tropical tones of Blue Skies, he released Liberation—a goth, industrial, and alt-rock infused anthem. The track has been praised for its “dark, psychedelic guitars,” “strong energy and emotion,” and “powerful and characteristic voice,” creating an immersive atmosphere and raw spirit of resistance.

The new sound was shaped by working with co-producer Daniel Aceves in Guadalajara, while continuing to collaborate with Charlie in Puerto Vallarta, who mixed and mastered both Liberation and Catching Up—a charged protest-pop track addressing the climate crisis, extinction, and social apathy. This single blends urgency with sonic richness.

Fresh off a live TV performance on Hoy en Aquí en el 10 (TVMar Puerto Vallarta), Séa continues to amplify his message globally. With these releases, he cements his role as an artist for change—merging music, activism, and atmosphere into one compelling voice.
