Tell your story
Recall the songs connected to the people, places, and moments that shaped your life.
A life in songs
Can you hear
who you are?
The music you love is the autobiography you didn't know you were writing.
Every life has a soundtrack. Some songs hold the people we loved. Others carry places, turning points, and versions of ourselves we thought we'd forgotten. What does your music know about you?
Explore the experienceThe idea
More than a playlist.
A song can take us somewhere no photograph can. Striking Accord is an exploration of how music shapes identity, preserves memory, and helps us recognize something of ourselves in one another.
The experience
Your story, heard differently.
We're creating an interactive experience that invites people to tell the stories behind their most meaningful songs—and transforms those stories into personal musical portraits and keepsakes.
See your music
Explore a visual portrait of your memories and musical identity.
Share what matters
Make something meaningful to share with family, friends, or someone who hears it too.
The interactive interview and portrait tools are in development.
The book
Striking Accord
Part memoir, part inquiry into music and memory, the forthcoming book asks what the songs we carry reveal about who we are—and how music allows us to find one another.
Coming soon
What song holds a part of your life?
We're building a place to answer that question—and discover what happens when others do, too.
