About

Seamus Gethicker is a young theatre organist from Bath, Maine. He is the 2016 winner of the American Theatre Organ Society’s Young Organist Competition and has since had the privilege of performing at venues across the country.

​

Seamus’ interest in pipe organs began at age 8, when he attended a Christmas concert at Merrill Auditorium in Portland, Maine, and first witnessed the mighty Kotzschmar Organ played by Ray Cornils, with whom he later studied classical organ throughout middle and high school. Soon after discovering the pipe organ, he suddenly found out about the theatre organ by stumbling across a video online and was instantly hooked.

​

Since 2022, Seamus has been a guest organist at Organ Stop Pizza in Mesa, Arizona, home to one of the largest theatre organs in the world, where he fills in as needed throughout the year. Having a broad taste in music, Seamus’ programs contain a wide variety of selections that is sure to have something for everyone.
