Music is magic and musicians connecting from across the globe have whispered their benevolent spells in our ears and tapped into our souls, weaving us together into one fabric, a musical community that lives and breathes on the Steemit platform.

From humble beginnings great things grow. Music, the language of emotion, is universal, and did I mention magic?
One of the most magical things I've seen on this platform is watching the communities around music grow and mutually support each other, musically, creatively, and yes, even with an upvote.
Open Mic has inspired people to sing and play music every week and share it with the world and the world is listening and responding.
Here are a few music projects that have symbiotic relationships with Open Mic, each supporting the other. All of these projects have evolved independently and voluntarily. Common to them all is they all support musicians on Steemit.
