The Power of Others: Group Psychology, Groupthink, and Fandom with author Michael Bond 59:01

Humans are group-ish beings! Whether it's your family, your friends, your band, your artist community, your country, etc., we all belong to groups. Whether we realize it or not, groups have a powerful impact on our own thoughts and behaviors. In this episode of Music Therapy, I talk with science writer and journalist Michael Bond, author of " The Power of Others: Peer Pressure, Groupthink, and How the People Around Us Shape Everything We Do " and his newest book " Fans: A Journey Into the Psychology of Belonging ". We explore the many ways we're impacted by groups, the forces that make a group healthy and communicative, and the insular, destructive echo chambers of groupthink . This is a fascinating conversation that had me thinking for days - and I'm sure you'll find it fascinating, too. ****************** Songs included in episode: "Flowers on the Water" and "Better Not Lose Her" by Pretty Horse Visit https://www.michaelbond.co.uk/ ***************************** Visit musictherapypodcast.com for session notes, past episodes, and upcoming events!

In this episode of Music Therapy I talk with Chicago artist Alana Schactel of Lipsticsm. Lipsticism’s sound is frequently described as cosmic, dreamy, and psychedelic, and there is something immediate and sensual in her punchy drums and emotional honesty. We cover a lot of ground in this episode! Alana is currently studying to become a therapist, so we discuss our shared experience in the worlds of music and therapy. We look at how music impacts mental health, the anxiety of performing solo vs with a group, and Alana’s new album “Two Mirrors Facing Each Other”, released December 2nd via Earth Libraries. My favorite part of the conversation was learning Alana’s creative process. We discuss flow and those nights when it just isn’t happening. We also look at what it means to be a “successful” musician.
