Brimming with
passion and soul
Mid twenty to mid
thirty year olds living
in America

where they are today. Hard work, honesty,
and perseverance are key parts of their
journey.

The Demand for Transparency
As technology has changed the way information is presented,
we have become more aware of the veils that are placed
before us. As a result, we crave media that feels real and
honest.
Country music is a genre I like, because it shares a
story that I can relate to, even if I don’t make millions or
perform in front of sold out crowds.
Other genres are just talking about things completely
unrelatable…like popping thousand dollar bottles and
having girls (wearing next to nothing) dance around
you.

Music is Their
Emotional
Compass.
”Sometimes I feel like rock, or if I’m tired I want
something catchy and upbeat. With that said, if I hear
a really great song, it can totally change my mood.”
–Holly, 32, Alabama
“My music allows me to get lost in it so I can come back
more centered and balanced which in turn impacts me and
how I express myself more positively.”
-Maurice, 27, IL
Music is open-minded.
It is for self-interest,
not social status.-
“You like what you like. And that's okay! There are
different personality types, life experiences, and many
other intangibles that shape your "taste" in music. It
might be your age, your region, or your ethnicity. Maybe
you're into gangsta rap, or pop-country, or spoken word.
If it moves you, go for it.” – Matt, 35, CA
“I no longer am influenced to what my friends listen to,
because I know I'm not being myself if I'm doing that. I've
gotten to the point in my life where I make decisions solely
on what is best for me.” –Tyler, 24, CA

Music is Their
Support System.
“Whether I feel like a million bucks or I feel down in dumps you are there for
me . You always know how to make me feel better. You enlighten me and
you lift my spirits.”
– Christy, 34, NJ, in an open letter to music.
Music is Where
Their Memories
Live.
“I can still remember three of the songs that were played
at my dad’s memorial, and now whenever those songs
come on, whether it be on the radio or in the grocery store,
I flash back directly to the day of my dad’s memorial and at
times have to hold myself together.” – Tyler, 24, California
Music is Identity.

Their Guidelines to Worthiness
If it really speaks to you, go for it! It is the best way to support the artist.
If not, save your money and just stream it.
This is the best way to get free, instant access to music you love,
and discover amazing artists like never before.
Absolutely worthy.
By finding them relatable, their music is better.
Sharing
Streaming
Buying
Share because you love spreading joy into people’s lives.
Because you know how good it feels to discover amazing music.
Because they’ll appreciate it.
Connecting to
Artists Online
They passively discover music,
rather than actively searching
for it.
What Makes 2014’s Music Lovers Unique?
They do not have a defined taste,
but rather, a broad set of likes.
They gravitate towards musicians
who embrace their individuality,
who are unafraid to be strange. Insight:
Music is no longer the top priority
It is found out of convenience.
Insight
They haven’t formed any deep emotional connection with
new music. They are desperately craving a new genre.
Insight:
Sameness is boring. Bold,
honest expression isn’t.
“Different” has mass appeal.
