Early Life
Born in Tempe, Arizona and raised in Orem, Utah, before relocating to the east coast, by the late 1960s Sean had established himself as the lead singer of several successful groups in the New York City area. One such group, "Sean Delaney and Trust" signed a recording contract with Elektra Records. Another, a group called "Natural Juice," was signed with Columbia Records after being discovered by Clive Davis. Sean later formed a company, the "Music Department" with future KISS management Glickman/Marks associate Howard Marks. Sean's close relationship with KISS manager Bill Aucoin (the two were "room-mates," 1969-80) indubitably played a huge part in the early development of the band, as well as his association with Neil Bogart long before KISS or Casablanca Records were created.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Everyone in our culture wants to win a prize. Perhaps that is the grand lesson we have taken with us from kindergarten in the age of perversions of Dewey-style education: everyone gets a ribbon, and praise becomes a meaningless narcotic to soothe egoistic distemper.”
—Gerald Early (b. 1952)
“The arbitrary division of one’s life into weeks and days and hours seemed, on the whole, useless. There was but one day for the men, and that was pay day, and one for the women, and that was rent day. As for the children, every day was theirs, just as it should be in every corner of the world.”
—Alice Caldwell Rice (1870–1942)
