Few things unite people as effortlessly as music. Whether at a corporate event, conference, or intimate gathering, the right tunes create a shared energy that lingers long after the final note. For their 100th podcast episode celebration, Seth Dechtman and The Keynote Curators Podcast partnered with SongDivision, a trailblazing group redefining event music through creativity and collaboration.
During this special episode, SongDivision’s musicians, Sam McNeill and Angus Clark, delivered an electrifying “Insta-hit” composed on the spot for Seth and our podcast. More than just a catchy tune, their performance embodied the core of what makes SongDivision unique: blending music, storytelling, and audience participation to build unforgettable moments.
SongDivision transforms ordinary events into extraordinary experiences using the universal language of music. Their approach goes beyond entertainment, offering participants a chance to actively engage through live, interactive songwriting sessions. From creating company anthems to composing spontaneous melodies at trade shows, SongDivision’s offerings are a breath of fresh air in the world of corporate events and entertainment.
Having worked with iconic brands like Google, Bose, and Virgin, SongDivision has proven their ability to elevate corporate entertainment by fostering creativity, enhancing communication, and building community—all through music.
For Seth and The Keynote Curators Podcast, reaching 100 episodes was no small feat. To honor this milestone, SongDivision composed a song live during the podcast, weaving Seth’s story and the essence of his work into the lyrics.
As Sam McNeill explained during the episode, their signature “Insta-hit” involves creating a custom, original song in under three minutes. With input from Seth, including details about his work, passions, and even childhood dreams, the song became a heartfelt tribute to the podcast’s journey.
Here’s a glimpse into the lyrics that captured Seth’s mission:
“Give it up for my man Seth, making a difference every day.
Transforming lives and helping them grow. When it comes to keynotes, he’s in the know!”
The spontaneity of the song’s creation reflected the energy and innovation SongDivision brings to every event they touch.
Music is more than entertainment—it’s a tool for connection, emotion, and memory. SongDivision taps into this power to:
As Angus Clark shared, the magic of these sessions lies in their scalability. From energizing a crowd of thousands to intimate gatherings of a few dozen, SongDivision tailors its programs to suit any group size and dynamic.
During the episode, Angus and Sam reflected on their experiences performing with legendary artists like David Bowie. While their rock-and-roll backgrounds bring undeniable talent to SongDivision, their work in events showcases how music bridges the gap between entertainment and business development.
Whether leading a room in a collaborative songwriting session or crafting a high-energy anthem for a convention, SongDivision creates an environment where creativity and productivity thrive side by side.
For meeting planners and event organizers, incorporating live music and interactive experiences like SongDivision’s programs offers a competitive edge. Here’s why:
Imagine a convention where attendees aren’t just listening to keynote speakers but singing along to a song they helped write. This is the future of event entertainment—a shift from passive enjoyment to immersive involvement.
As Seth noted during the podcast, hosting his show has pushed him out of his comfort zone, offering opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Similarly, SongDivision challenges participants to embrace intuition and creativity, reminding us that everyone has something valuable to contribute.
Whether it’s writing a simple lyric or contributing a melody, the process fosters confidence and unity. And as Sam shared, “Even two words can be the start of something unforgettable.”
