I had a blast this week moving Lisa Gallant-Seal to the fifth stage of Incubator's "7 Stages of Stage Performance". Lisa is such a great songwriter and her vocals always warm me up quicker than a shot of Kahlua in my latte! I just love her organic and bluesy edge. At Stage 5 we make some initial decisions about the repertoire for the stage program. She's opening her set with "Fish Out Of Water" which is a perfect introduction to what's in store during the next hour. Her concert is shaping up to be anything but ordinary. And, "Changing Direction" in the center of her Message Block is a perfect fit to move to the core message of her presentation. Stage 5 also let us start seeing how all the hard work from the first four stages would sew together. Her program thread of, "Hindsight is 20/20" seems like the perfect fit for her unique story and program. It's times like this that I am so excited to be living out my calling with the company. Life inside the music ministry incubator is really rewarding when I see a program like this come together. Lisa and I are starting to dialog about a format for Performance Camp (Stage 7) in the next few months. I can hardly wait to get her out there sharing her story and music. She's gonna rock... on more levels than one!
