About Me

State of Mind Presents: Marco Benevento Trio & Nathan Moore - November 10, 2008 at FlynnSpace in Burlington, VTTix available here

State of Mind exists because a few people asked themselves this question: How come nobodyâ€™s talking about music as passionately as we feel about it? We didnâ€™t see any music magazines looking deep. Where were the great conversations about music? We werenâ€™t reading anything that was personal or had a sense of humor. We werenâ€™t reading anything that investigated the mystery and power of music. If music has so much emotional and spiritual depth, then shouldnâ€™t a magazine about music reflect that? We knew we werenâ€™t alone.

Over the past three years, State of Mind has built a reputation for delivering in-depth music coverage with genuine diversity. We embrace the Duke Ellington philosophy, â€œIf it sounds good, it is good.â€ And people are connecting with that.
