Groupmuse Information

Groupmuse is a partnership between a nonprofit and a cooperative which seeks to uplift artists and strengthen broader community bonds through live, intimate performances of historically-rooted music. Since 2013, we've organized over 10,000 concerts in 50+ cities, and been featured in The New York Times, Time Magazine, Wall Street Journal, the Boston Globe, the Guardian, NPR, WIRED, and more. At first glance, Groupmuse is an online platform where hosts and musicians organize concerts (which we call "groupmuses") in non-traditional spaces, such as living rooms, backyards, church basements, and public parks. But ask any long-time groupmuser, and you’ll learn that Groupmuse is about so much more. It’s about building real, in-person community. It’s about bringing friends along and making new ones. It’s about giving and receiving gifts seen and unseen. It’s about closing your eyes and being transported during a particularly powerful passage of music. It’s about feeling connected to yourself, your local community, and the world.
