Sean Ono Lennon learned to play music to get closer to his late father, John Lennon

"I never played music because I was good at it," he tells People in a new interview. "I lost my father and I didn't know how to fill that void. Learning how to play his songs on guitar was a way to process the loss with an activity that made me feel connected to him."

Sean continues to learn more about his dad by managing John's legacy, being involved in things like the recent Mind Games box set and more. And the more he works on these projects, the more connected he feels to his dad, especially since many of the archival tapes include John interacting with his fellow musicians.
