The image, taken by renowned photographer Brian Foskett, showcases McCann's undeniable talent as a jazz musician. On stage at this iconic venue, McCann exudes passion and skill as he effortlessly plays the piano. His fingers glide across the keys with precision and finesse, creating an enchanting melody that fills the air. The intensity on his face reflects his deep connection to the music, transporting both himself and the audience into a world of rhythm and soul. Surrounded by fellow musicians who share his love for jazz, McCann stands out with his charismatic presence.
