24th August: International Strange Music Day
International Strange Music Day is commemorated on August 24 of every year. The day is celebrated as to play and pay attention to the kinds of music which you have never experienced before. Be a part of the strange music as to deal the unexpected moments of your life in a better way. So it’s time for you to start enjoying the strange new music on this International Strange Music Day.
International Strange Music Day was created by Patrick Grant, a New York City musician. The premise is simple: to get people to play and listen to types of music they have never experienced before. The ‘strange’ part can mean either unfamiliar or bizarre – the choice is entirely yours.
Patrick believes broadening people’s musical spectrum’s can also change the way we look at other aspects of life – his mantra is ‘listening without prejudice’. This growing movement has concerts, a record label and strong support from summer schools, where it is appreciated as a great way to stimulate young minds.
