Hey Mr Dj put a record on — it’s World Music Day

“Music — it speaks to our very soul. It has the ability to lift our spirits when we are feeling down, it can transport us around the world and through time and perhaps best of all, it’s free and available to everyone. From singing in the shower for an audience of one to an outdoor stage in front of hundreds of thousands — Gloria Estafan was correct, the rhythm is really “gonna get you.”

World Music Day is on Sunday 21 June and what better time to tune in and cop out, and embrace all the benefits that the sound of music has to offer (music puns, by the way, are fully intended throughout this blog!)…”
