Originally from Los Angeles, Nathan relocated to Nashville when he was 11 years old and endured a major culture shock. Embracing the transition between cities through painting graffiti and exploring new territories through skateboarding travels, motivated Nathan artistically. In the late 90's he drew inspiration from these passions, using color and form to play with perspective. Positioned at the intersection of abstractionism and street art, Nathan has transitioned this style into the studio and on multi story buildings across the U.S. and Europe. Prior to mural work, Nathan had an extensive career in experiential marketing, promoting and producing concerts / festivals and events for Live Nation, Golden Voice (Coachella), AEG Presents and Disney, in which he marketed & promoted over 5000 shows over the course of 15 years.Nathan has created over 150 large scale commissioned murals for both communities around the country and also for brands such as Red Bull, Wrangler, Patagonia, Top Golf, WeWork, Google, Spotify, to name a few, the goal has always been the same since day one, to bring people, places and communities together through public art, transforming and creating new spaces where there were none before. Nathan primarily paints large scale public art on the streets, as well as indoor private commissions and is currently based in Chattanooga, TN.Website www.luxelifediscovered.com Youtube Roku Amazon Fire TV

Musicians have the blueprint to end poverty. This episode is inspired from a talk I did for my final lecture I did for an Entertainment Finance course. It was part of a four week financial freedom series where students learned about the different economic schools, income producing assets, how to analyze stocks, Web 3.0, and finished with the musicians business blueprint. I believe the model that musicians, and really most of the music industry operate in, is a map on how we can build up the middle class, income class, and work towards ending poverty in America.

Terry Corso, of We Are Pigs and Alien Ant Farm, talks with co-hosts Vanessa Franko and Tom Nash about what it's like to go to festivals as a fan and a performer, how Coachella compares to festivals around the world. Terry also shares some of his favorite Coachella memories and  talks about photographing Coachella and what he looks for when he's behind the lens.   The COVID-19 rules around concerts are changing. AEG Presents, which owns Coachella promoter Goldenvoice, is requiring fans to be vaccinated as of Oct. 1. Other festivals are instituting rules to show proof of vaccination or a negative test result.  We talk about the pandemic and the concert industry and what it will take for things to come back.  We talk about how Coachella changed the Southern California music landscape.  Coachella is a place to find some hidden gems every year. Vanessa's rule is that if she sees Terry on the field, she follows him. That's how she saw Trash Talk and Ghost B.C. How does Coachella compare to festivals around the world? Terry tells us and also shares what it's like to play some of those big festivals. Terry talks about his new project, We Are Pigs, with Esjay Jones, and the new music they're working on.    Follow us: @cantfeeltheheat on Instagram and Twitter;  Follow Vanessa: @vanessafranko on Twitter; Newsletter: pe.com/newsletters - search for Festival Pass Follow Terry: @wearepigs on Instagram and @terrymcorso on Instagram
