Music & Being is a collective of like‑minded artists, thinkers, and audiences located at the intersection of music, art, wellbeing, spirituality, self‑expression, physical and mental health.

We believe music can reconnect us with our sense of selves. That it can facilitate profound self-expression and self-discovery. That it can help us explore, navigate and nurture our relationship to our inner and outer worlds.

However, we noticed that these innate qualities of music are too often overlooked, or taken for granted, in many music making and listening experiences today. We founded Music & Being to start recalibrating this.

Music & Being is a collective of like-minded artists, thinkers, and audiences interested in exploring the potential of music to reconnect us with a sense of ourselves, and the world around us, through collaborative and often interdisciplinary projects.

It is an open laboratory space located at the intersection of music, art, wellbeing, spirituality, self-expression, physical and mental health.

Music & Being was founded by contralto Jess Dandy and composer Alex Mills in 2022.
