The Sound Mind Music Festival for Mental Health is set to return to the bustling streets of Bushwick, New York on May 18th. This event, held on Jefferson Street, promises a day filled with music, community, and a strong commitment to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health.
Sound Mind, an organization dedicated to fostering open discussions and awareness about mental health, has put together an event that not only entertains but also educates and empowers attendees. The festival offers a variety of attractions aimed at furthering the organization’s mission of creating a more inclusive and supportive society.
While the festival is open to all at no cost, Sound Mind Live offers a VIP experience for those looking to show additional support. VIP ticket holders will have access to exclusive party areas, receive special merchandise, and can enjoy the afterparty featuring DJ White Shadow, known for his work with Lady Gaga on hits like “Born This Way” and “Artpop.”
In addition to providing a fun-filled day, every contribution and purchase made at the festival will directly contribute to the development of the Sound Mind Center, a forthcoming hospital designed to harness the healing power of music and sound.
A highlight of the event will be live performances by acclaimed artists such as Kevin Morby and MisterWives, along with talents like Bailen and SHAED. Etienne Bowler, drummer for MisterWives, emphasized the importance of participating in such a meaningful event, stating that it provides a platform to raise awareness about mental health and create a safe community for growth and healing.
Following the festival, attendees can head to Elsewhere in Brooklyn for an unforgettable afterparty experience. Tickets for Sound Mind Live are currently available. Stay tuned for more updates from Sound Mind and the festival.
