ABOUT SOUND MIND 


At Sound Mind Live and our physical hub Sound Mind Center, we use the universal language of music to inspire action, foster connection, and break the stigma surrounding mental health. Our innovative programs combine the arts with mental health advocacy to create transformative spaces for healing and understanding. Through events, workshops, and digital content, we amplify the voices of those impacted by mental health challenges and connect them to resources and community support.


Our Mission and Impact:


  • Empowering Communities: With 1 in 5  experiencing mental health challenges, Sound Mind focuses on addressing the gaps in education, accessibility, and understanding around mental well-being. Since 2018, our programs have reached over 200,000 people directly and 1.5 million digitally, connecting individuals to life-changing mental health resources and fostering a sense of belonging.
  • Musicians as Advocates: With 73% of musicians living with mental health conditions, artists serve as trusted voices in our movement. By sharing their own journeys, they help reduce stigma and encourage open dialogue within their communities.
  • Evidence-Driven Programs: Backed by over 3,000 studies highlighting music’s positive impact on mental health, we create spaces where the arts serve as both a support tool and a catalyst for change.

Programs That Drive Change:


  • Community Events: Our flagship Music Festival for Mental Health in NYC is a free, full-day event that draws over 5,000 attendees annually and streams to 100,000+. Featuring top artists, mental health panels, and wellness activities like sound healing and meditation, it provides equitable access to mental health resources and fosters advocacy.
  • Workshops & Sessions: Year-round, we host smaller music and wellness workshops and events for the local community, using music and the arts as a tool for connection and resilience.
  • Digital Storytelling: Our podcast, Going There with Dr. Mike, in partnership with Consequence Media, and video series Unmasked with Billboard Magazine, feature artists discussing their mental health journeys, reaching hundreds of thousands globally.
  • Grassroots Outreach: Through our Road to Recovery initiative, we partner with national tours, venues, and festivals to connect underserved audiences with mental health resources via live activations and community-based support.
