Nashville Favorite Activities

You know he’s a Nashvillian, because when asked about living in Music City, he cited being tolerant of the practice sessions coming from the house next door. “Listen to your neighbors riff…..despise their sound, but respect their grind,” he recommends.
Casper Sage will be playing at Backyard Sessions curated by WNXP at Bobby Nashville's Rooftop Lounge on July 25. He’s looking forward to the intimate setting of the venue. “I’ve grown to believe sharing music in a live setting to be deep, for lack of better words. Especially for people who’ve never heard [the music], or those who have heard [it], but never experienced it up close. That moment whenever you’re trying to understand is often the one that breeds a deep connection,” he says. “Selfishly, it’s beautiful to be seen as something to understand.”
He has new music as well as new adaptations of some old music ready to play at Backyard Sessions.
Casper Sage is best known for music that defies genre. “I’ve been loving a bit of everything lately,” he says of his most recent influences. “I think I’ve found a pocket of many things about which I love lots of things. The other day my lady and I listened to Solange’s ‘True’ and thoroughly enjoyed it. 1970s Chaka Khan when the sun’s shining. 1980s Chaka Khan when night falls. There’s a deep harmony at play here.”
Casper Sage is also known for very personal lyrics. Music, he says, “is what helps me to feel consonant with the world around me.” That deep well of emotion is evident in his live performances. “After the nerves subside and a couple of songs have gone smooth enough, it’s easy for my mind to settle into the fact that it’s just a room full of people, a lot of whom are trying to decide how things are making them feel.”
Reserve your spot to feel it all for yourself on July 25.
