"A community that is a safe space for anyone to be a part of, speak and be heard, listen and relate grow and heal, is the beginning of how we tackle mental health.  It absolutely must be normalized because in my experience, one of the worst feelings is having an anxiety attack and trying to hide it from everyone"

DRIVING ACTION AND IMPACT THROUGH PARTNERSHIP

The 5th annual SOUND MIND MUSIC FESTIVAL FOR MENTAL HEALTH brought together artists and forward-thinking organizations to create community, foster dialogue, and catalyze social change for mental health during a crucial time in history. The event amplified the voices of artists speaking openly about mental health, and elevated the requisite conversation and culture to break stigma as it exists today.

In addition to live performances, artists shared their own mental health journeys, and experts from leading mental health organizations shared mental health resources, support programs, and tips for self-care. Proceeds from the event will support Sound Mind Center. - a music and wellness center dedicated to crafting transformative experiences through music and sound. Here, harmony cultivates community.

“Our goal is to normalize the conversation around mental health, remove the stigma, keep people talking, and let them realize that they're not alone.”

Carmella Wallace, Mother of Juice WRLD and Founder of Live 999

“I am excited to be a part of a movement that has this crossover of mental health and music; this is something that is a long-time coming.”

Kevin Morby

 “It’s increasingly important and valuable to create community  when trying to confront an issue like mental health that impacts so many of us.”
