The Story

During the height of COVID, a few friends swapped songs that reminded them of life’s important moments. Over time, this simple - using music to rebuild our connective tissue - became the Come Together Music Project.

 

Music has a power all its own. Music can help us deepen existing relationships and create new ones. Music helps us bride socio-economic, political, and generational divides. 

​

In an increasingly polarized world, music helps us humanize one another and reestablish trust.

​

Each Come Together Music session features guests who bring their song selections in response to a series of prompts. As we listen to the music and share the stories behind the choices, the walls between us inevitably begin to crumble. 

​

We aim to show audiences how music can be used to deepen connection.

The Come Together Music Project was founded by Shaka Mitchell and is a registered, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Contributions are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
