The Seth Horan Podcast

To most of the world, Tim Snider is best known as the Violin Warrior in the band Nahko and Medicine for the People. But my fans might remember Tim from when we shared stages together back in the day, on the road during his time as the leader of a young band called Sol'Jibe.I know few people who’ve experienced 'the music life' from as many perspectives as Tim has. He started as a bandleader, and he built his band up to full-time multi-regional success around America. Then he went solo, and made his mark up and down the west coast as a one man violin looping show... and now he finds himself as a sideman in one of the fastest rising acts I’ve seen in recent musical history.We covered a LOT in a fascinating, two-part conversation... during the fiercest rainstorm Central New York has seen in years.Tim's website: http://timsnidermusic.comNahko & Medicine for the People: http://nahko.com/home/(Want the FULL interview?

Danielle Miraglia has been a staple on the Boston music scene for just about as long as I’ve been playing there. She’s just released her 4th official album - All My Heroes Are Ghosts - with her band, The Glory Junkies, and she’s been touring for the past few months in support of it. I caught her show here in Syracuse a couple weeks ago, and the next day she sat down in my kitchen for my first in-person interview -- and what turned out to be a wide-ranging conversation.As you’ll hear, her record is fantastic, and you can get it, as well as all Danielle’s other music at: http://daniellem.com(Want the FULL interview?

The most misunderstood aspect of what I do is that I do it... with a bass. This is because some people see the bass as a young instrument; a barely-explored voice just coming into its place in the world.... and others see it strictly as the embodiment of a sacred musical job that must never be changed.

F.A.Q! It never sounds glamorous, but in this episode, I guarantee I answer that thing you’ve been quietly wondering about, so listen up! :) Through parts 1 & 2, I answer listener-submitted questions covering everything from iTunes, to touring, to my puppy, to guitar shredding. Not for the faint of heart! ;) NOTES light reading on Spotify: UPDATE - Apparently, my info on Spotify royalties actually errs on the side of generosity. This royalty calculator is massively depressing: http://resources.audiam.com/rates/ https://nypost.com/2018/01/28/copyright-board-boosts-songwriters-streaming-fees/ https://www.theverge.com/2015/12/7/9861372/spotify-year-in-review-artist-payment-royalties https://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2016/05/25/average-annual-salary-spotify-employee/ https://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2017/09/26/spotify-33-million-world-trade-center/ https://www.payscale.com/research/US/Employer=Spotify/Salary https://www.glassdoor.com/Intern-Salary/Spotify-Internship-Salary-E408251.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify Seth's (now defunct) pre-order page for "The Mean": https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pre-order-seth-horan-s-new-limited-edition-cd#/ SETH ON PATREON: https://goo.gl/gwV9EW (Subscribe for a dollar to get access to Part 2 of this and all other podcast episodes -- plus my new, original music!)

Happy New Year, everyone.  This episode is a look at how I'm changing things up this year… by posting a lot more video…. and by Embracing The Face.  We also listen to some bass-centric original songs, if you're in to that sort of thing.  Enjoy!

My guest is singer/songwriter David Peters.  Based in Los Angeles, he's a critically acclaimed and sought-after producer and engineer (in addition to working with nearly everyone I know in some way, he's also helped create four of my own albums).  Recently, he's focused his efforts on the recreation of “The Secret Album”, which was an intimate song collection he made 18 years ago and only showed to a handful of people… one of which was me.  It is one of the most profoundly moving records I've ever heard, and I've been waiting for the day he would resurrect this music and release it to the world. In this episode, we listen to samples of the songs that will be on “Makeshift Memorials", and talk about the process of revisiting such intimate pieces, so many years later.

This episode, my guests are Rob Hinkal and Heather Aubrey Lloyd of ilyAIMY (I Love You And I Miss You).They are a band of anywhere from two to six people, depending on the setting.  Based in Baltimore Maryland, they have cultivated a tribal following all over the USA with their very intense, acoustic songwriting.  At their largest, they include multiple vocalists, acoustic guitars, drums, cello, bass, piano, djembe... and BONES. Rob and Heather are the dual creative forces behind the group, and have a unique and compelling sixteen year history. They shared some of their story and their perspectives, as well as insight into their songs, in a fun and wide-ranging two part conversation. http://ilyaimy.com  (their website is actually *better* than their social media sites) February Album Writing Month:  http://fawm.org   My earlier podcast with Joel Ackerson and The Novelists: http://bit.ly/sethhoranpodcastepisode2   To gain access to Part 2 of this and all my other podcasts, as well as all the new music I release, please support me through Patreon:  http://patreon.com/sethhoran -- A $1 pledge comes out to roughly eight to ten dollars per year, so for the price of two lattes, you'll never miss anything I do.  Check it out!
