“Music is a tremendously powerful tool that can be used to dramatically reduce social issues like inequality, loneliness, emotional turmoil, social injustice, and environmental damage.
It can be used to bring people together, build empathy, strengthen communities, preserve cultural identity, boost self-awareness, and, most importantly, empower people to solve problems. Music can be the innovator’s best friend.”
