MUSIC MONDAY SERIES

Scientists believe that listening to music in a group helps people to connect. This connection happens because the rhythm in the music helps people's brains synchronize. This allows them to coordinate their body movements. As a result, music can influence how we work in a group. While I wish we could all be at concerts together all the time, sadly, we can not. However, thanks to the internet, sites like Spotify, Soundcloud, and Youtube, we can share some fantastic artists making incredible music. Check out our other Music Monday posts.
