I’ve shared quite a bit of information, here on TonyFunderburk.com, about the benefits of … The rest of the story…
It’s such a blast to make music. I’ve been doing it since I was a little kid. I can remember getting a very small metal set of drums for my birthday when I was 5. At least I think it was my fifth birthday. But that’s not the point. The point is that I bet my parents and grandparents regretted giving me that present. … The rest of the story…
A huge amount of people (maybe the majority), on social media, aren’t listening to music. Well, maybe that’s not the best place for research. Even though social media IS the source of all truth. But here’s why I mentioned it. Because listening to music is supposed to help your cognitive function. Could that possibly be true? Uh, yeah. Or else I wouldn’t’ve even brought … The rest of the story…
I read another article about brain cell connections to music. Yeah, I’m a nerd when it comes to that kind of information. And I love a quote from that article that said, “Neurons that fire together, wire together.” Of course the scientist who said that was talking about how brain cells communicate with each other by “firing” messages through junctions called synapses.

95 years ago, today, October 6, a quirky little guy said, “”Wait a minute, wait a minute, you ain’t heard nothing yet.” And the crowd went wild. You probably already know I’m talking about Al Jolson. And you probably already know he was the guy who made movie history when “The Jazz Singer” premiered as the first “talkie.” Yeah, after all those silent movies, … The rest of the story…
How’s your cognitive function? The blank slate. Einstein’s static universe. The planet Vulcan. Evolution. What do all these have in common? They’re all famous theories that have been debunked. And another one, maybe not quite as famous, might be debunked, too. But for now it seems to be true. I’m talking about how music improves cognitive function. Can music actually improve your cognitive function? … The rest of the story…
Do music communications have to be complicated? So, this young woman wrote about the differences between a music therapist and a “glorified performer.” That was in the headline, so her bias showed from the very beginning. And there’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, I appreciate her taking a stand. But after reading her article, I wondered why so many music therapists believe music … The rest of the story…
Is there such a thing as music immunity? It sort of depends on your definition of music immunity. But there appears to be quite a bit of significant research that backs up how beneficial it is to listen to and play music. And I’m calling it music immunity because I like the sound of it. (See what I did there?) Anyway…there’s a peer … The rest of the story…
Ever thought about what healing sounds like? “What healing sounds like? Don’t you mean what it LOOKS like, Tony?” Nope. I’m not into looks, when it comes to healing. Because healthy people don’t always look healthy. And sick people don’t always look sick. Know what I mean? Anyway…I’m talking about another benefit of music and health. This time it’s active instead of passive. Healing … The rest of the story…

And she’s already gone through an extensive round of chemotherapy and radiation. You know how it goes. Hair loss. Ghostlike complexion, etc. She didn’t want to go the more holistic … The rest of the story…
Have you ever heard symphony number 9? But not just any symphony number 9. I’m talking, of course, about the one by Beethoven. My favorite composer. And this symphony is one of my favorites of his. “But what’s the big deal about symphony number 9?” you ask. And I’m glad you asked. Here’s the deal. I’m a singer/songwriter (just in case you didn’t already … The rest of the story…
