His godfather is Elton John. Following Sean’s birth, John Lennon took a break from his music career to focus on raising him. Tragically, John Lennon was murdered when Sean was just five years old.

Lennon attended various schools around the world, including kindergarten in Tokyo, Institut Le Rosey in Switzerland, and the Ethical Culture Fieldston School and Dalton School in New York.

In 1996, Lennon joined the band Cibo Matto as their bass player, later becoming a full member and releasing albums “Super Relax” (1997) and “Stereo ★ Type A” (1999).

He followed this with the EP “Half Horse, Half Musician” (1999) and the album “Friendly Fire” (2006).

Lennon continued to explore various musical projects, forming the bands Mystical Weapons and The Claypool Lennon Delirium, releasing several albums with both.
