We listen to music because we want to feel things; we play it because we want to feel things ourselves and because we want to make other people feel things. This means that it is crucial for musicians to feel like they can be themselves, and safely express whatever it is they have inside that reflects who they are. This is all about acceptance and making space for people. Creating music with or for other people is a common goal, but this doesn't mean that there is one way to go about it. In fact, there are endless ways.
