MusicMoveMe is much more than a music news service. MusicMoveMe aims to provide a real and introspective look into the music scene.

Show Reflections

As we all know, live music is an experience and it cannot be simply reviewed as if it were being graded like a term paper, but instead, at MusicMoveMe shows will be reflected upon. We all experience shows in different ways and MusicMoveMe aims to capture that feeling that only live music can provide. MusicMoveMe’s intention with a show reflection is to explore the minute details that make the live music experience so unique for all of us.

Engaging Interviews

What makes a good question? One never knows until it is asked. A conversation ought to be honest and non-constricting. Through that message, it is MusicMoveMe’s intention to bring engaging interviews, diving deep into the interviewee’s mind to discover what it is that makes them and their craft so consumable and quite frankly, so addicting.

Honest Editorials

Sometimes the writer needs to just write for writing’s sake, and that’s what editorials are for. A place to unload the mind and organize it into a pile of words. At least at MusicMoveMe they are. Often times the writer is accompanied by bittersweet symphonies that help words flow onto the page. MusicMoveMe will promote peace and love, and will negate any hate.


The music’s up, window’s down,
Everbody’s lookin’. Who’s makin’ that sound?
I’m driving real slow down the popular streets
So everyone can listen to the music move me
