Music bonds! Speed friending is one of those concepts that sounds great on paper but sometimes creates awkward silences or weird vibes. We’re putting a musical twist on it to bring out better conversation and compatibility! Screenshot your Spotify Wrapped, bring your favorite vinyl record, or start thinking now about the ten songs that best describe you (Plus it’s a great excuse to listen to some good music all under the guise of improving your social life!).
