Together, as co-directors of Fionnathan Productions, Fionn and Jonathan combine music, culture, and social impact through a global lens. Fionn is widely recognised as a Happiness Expert, having conducted nearly 800 video interviews asking “What do you love about your life?” His YouTube series, Fionnathan Presents: The Happiness Project, has reached over 5 million viewers worldwide.

Fionn also works as a Heritage Expert, sharing his love of music, nature, and traditional Irish culture with children in schools across Ireland and internationally, and has appeared numerous times on national television.

In 2025, Fionn and Jonathan received Rémy Martin Irish Men of the Year Awards for Diversity & Inclusion Advocacy and Arts & Culture respectively. Their work spans advocacy, education, and policy engagement, with presentations at conferences worldwide, including the United Nations in New York and visits to more than 30 countries.

This promises to be a thought-provoking and uplifting event, exploring music, happiness, heritage, and global social impact.
