Coming from humble beginnings in a small town in southern Ontario, Canada, Sean's love for music at a young age drove him to strive for a career in music.
Sean, or as he calls himself, "the luckiest guy I know" has been able to travel the world performing with such legends as Neal McCoy, Clay Walker, Tanya Tucker, & Johnny Lee to name a few.
Some of his favorite moments while touring with Neal McCoy include performing on The Grand Ole Opry, The Tonight Show w/Jay Leno, and a USO tour that took small-town-raised Sean halfway around the globe.
These days Sean writes and records his own music and plays shows around the greater Nashville area, having since retired from touring with A-list artists. His music encapsulates everything that made Classic Country great, and his live shows will take you back to a simpler time.
Kala Dunn is a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist with a background spanning the genres of classical, jazz, bluegrass, and folk. Sean Mestan is a guitarist, vocalist, and ukulele player from Princeton, Ky., whose music is influenced by the sounds of Dan Fogelberg, James Taylor, and Loggins & Messina. Together with talented friends, Mestan and Dunn perform creative takes on a wide array of folk and Americana favorites.

The Museums of Historic Hopkinsville-Christian County invites you to our next History on Tap on Thursday, August 28 at 6:30pm at Hopkinsville Brewing Company for “The History of the Kentucky Derby in 10 Objects,” an insightful program about the state’s most well-known sports event, with Jessica Whitehead.
Over the last 150 years, the Kentucky Derby, like the state that founded it, has experienced profound moments of social, economic, and cultural change. As one of Kentucky’s flagship cultural and economic institutions, the Thoroughbred racing industry must constantly reconcile with its past and think critically about the stories that have traditionally made it into the winner’s circle. In the right hands, artifacts of material culture related to the Derby have the power to inspire nuanced stories of the past and shed light on marginalized voices in the industry’s history.
In this program, Jessica K. Whitehead sets out to recover this accurate history of America’s longest continuously held sporting event and establish a balance between well-known narratives and those that are less widely shared. Whitehead gives readers a personal tour of this history through 10 historic objects from the museum’s permanent collection – including one with special ties to Hopkinsville and Christian County.
Jessica K. Whitehead is the senior curator of collections for the Kentucky Derby Museum, where she safeguards and interprets the permanent collection of 20,000+ objects, photographs, and archival materials. On behalf of the museum, Whitehead has recently published The History of the Kentucky Derby in 75 Objects and Driftwood: The Life of Harlan Hubbard through the University Press of Kentucky.
History on Tap is a free series that seeks to share local history in a relaxed, fun setting. Programs are typically held on the last Thursday of the month at 6:30pm at Hopkinsville Brewing Company.

This playful paint-and-sip comes complete with silly prompts, googly eyes, and chaotic creativity. No skills required, but definitely your sense of humor and a drink will be needed. We'll wrap up with a mini gallery walk and give out ridiculous awards. Seats are $30 and include a drink. No refunds issued, but with a 48 hr notice you can use towards a future event.

Disney songs have long been pop culture touchstones - see how well you know them at this special-edition Singo game! Costumes and singing along strongly encouraged.
We are celebrating the summer with this is a 2 ½ hours event where we will build a small gnome. Participants will learn basic techniques to create items with clay and then will make their own gnome. After 1 hour of clay work, there will be a 30 minutes break to allow for food and drinks. After the break, participants will "paint" their items until they are satisfied with their creation or for 1 hour (whichever comes first). Once they are done decorating, or when the event ends, participants will make sure to share contact information with Sandrine to stay informed about the delivery of their pieces. Items made at this HBC workshop will be picked up at the HBC, 1-2 weeks after the event (to allow for full drying, application of a clear glaze coat and firing in the kiln).
Join us for karaoke night!
