Since 2012 we have delivered several music projects together with\u00a0talented musicians from around the world.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It all started in with a discussion between the founders of #musicstreet about street musicians. They\u00a0asked themselves\u00a0who these people are and why most of us just choose to pass them by without noticing their talents. While being inspired by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/PlayingForChange\" target=\"_blank\">viral video from playing for change<\/a> and becoming more curious of the social aspects, from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hnOPu0_YWhw\" target=\"_blank\">video of\u00a0the famous violinist\u00a0Joshua Bell<\/a>,\u00a0the first project took form.<\/p>\n<p>With a shared vision of lifting and bringing\u00a0the talents of the streets we stared to search for people to collaborate with. With a high interest from friends, musicians and people a team was formed and the first creation was set. During three sunny days in Gothenburg (Sweden) the team set out and meet up\u00a0with musicians on several locations and, with a mobile recording studio, recorded the first song It feels like home. The\u00a0musical journey resulted in a music video, several events and an award-winning documentary based on the creation of the song &#8221;It feels like home&#8221;.\u00a0Read more about that story here.<\/p>\n<p>Together with the musicians and people involved the adventure continues and have resultated in new initiatives performed around Sweden and new\u00a0sessions\u00a0recorded in Stockholm (Sweden), Gothenburg (Sweden), Accra (Ghana).
