Music is just as important as any other part of our lives. It enforces memories, makes you think, helps you cope, and makes life just a little more real and vivid. It ties you to people, compliments your identity, and is a huge part (in general) of what makes us human. Someone without music in their life is not getting the full spectrum of what it has to offer. Both of us in City 17 feel like music easily takes us to another place, whether it's new or nostalgic. It's the reason why we do this is the first place.
