Crafting Joyful Experiences Through Music with Seth Casana - Wake Up Excited

[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xHaYWRi9oc[/embed] I got to talk with Seth Casana on the Wake Up Excited! podcast. I'd love it if you check it out and consider subscribing to the show! At first glance, Seth Casana is a very unassuming, normal guy. But that all changes once he’s on stage. I’ve seen Seth belt out soulful funk wearing a moped helmet with bowling trophies duct taped to it. I’ve seen him rap while wearing samurai armor made from old computer keyboards. I’ve seen him marching down the street with his brass band all wearing old high-school marching band uniforms. I’ve seen him marching around town with a disco ball helmet and DJ rig strapped to him. Seth was my secret weapon at my big Frostapalooza concert. Not only did he supply his incredible band, Elby Brass, to be our horn section, Seth was our Peter Gabriel, Bruno Mars, David Byrne, and Thom Yorke, equipped with a sousaphone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ywq_AHSynXY&list;=PLRVyFmnlMfe23hoLs4Hg8PpSgJXP9qTGx&index;=4 In our conversation, Seth and I cover the power and potency of live music, the importance of shared joyful experiences, the arts as a professional vs as a practice, the immense effort that goes into creating fun experiences, the role of levity, humor, and whimsy in these bleak times, and practical tips for cultivating your creativity.
