Mike Casey’s new single, “The Beauty of Everyday Life,” drops us right into the hustle of a big city’s morning rush, all wrapped up in a smooth jazz fusion package. Written during his time in Spain in 2019, the tune draws its vibe from the futuristic digs of Valencia’s City of Arts & Sciences. It’s got a special kind of magic about it: blending the daily grind with something a bit more enchanting.
The track kicks off with a chill, mellow buildup—like the city at dawn, just stretching and waking up. But don’t let that fool you. Once the band kicks in, it’s full throttle, bustling energy that’s both organic and electric. Casey’s sax, along with Josh Porter‘s piano, Travis Collins on the drums, Sam Borrello zoning out on the electric guitar, Colescott Rubin‘s rich acoustic bass, and Eve Matin’s shimmering harp strings pulling it all together—it’s a wild ride.
Step into the studio with them in the music video, shot by Stephanie Piedrahita, and it’s like you’re right there, in the middle of the jam, with Mike leading the charge like a maestro. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at how spontaneous and electric these types of sessions can be – proving that magic happens when talented folks throw down together.
“The Beauty of Everyday Life” immerses its audience in the rhythms and feelings of daily life. It magnifies the commonplace, elevating the ordinary into something remarkable; something worth grooving to.
