Pull up a chair for a visit with singer-songwriter, producer and activist, Seth Glier. I’m willing to bet that you’ll at least consider some time outdoors by the end of our conversation – and that would be just fine with Seth. We learn about Seth’s nine-year-old experiences with activism and recognize very quickly that the stage was a natural transition point for the advocacy work he was already accomplishing in his youth. Seth tells us about a rare and fascinating exchange when a Mongolian vocalist became his teacher. We discuss some key environmental issues that Seth has learned which helped to inform his stellar 2024 album, Everything. Today, through his music, daily practices, citizen science and regular explorations this talented multi-instrumentalist is uncovering new worlds and taking us along. He’s got an exciting late summer/fall and continues to approach these possibilities with gratitude, curiosity and empathy.
