Hear Me Out

​​Hear Me Out is an in-person music discovery club, with the aim of facilitating music discovery that de-centers algorithms and re-centers recommendations from real people.

​Algorithms are fine when looking for things we’ll like, but we still venture out into the real world to discover things to love; restaurants, people, destinations.

​We do these things while assuming the risk of failure, challenge and disappointment, because deep down we know that the things we’ll love will not come find us; that true discovery, and growth comes when we’re active participants, and not passengers in our discovery. 

​Why shouldn’t music discovery be the same?

​Join us at vowels on November 6th for our first meeting. Each attendee will come ready to share music from an artist they think more people should know about, and we’ll experience this music as a group, watching music videos and having discussions. There are no genre restrictions or expectations. By the end of the session, there is no guarantee that you’ll hear something you like, but you’ll surely have been challenged, and maybe even surprised.

​The event starts at 6:00pm. Light refreshments will be provided.
