If you’re looking for some motivation to sing today, you’re reading the right post. There’s no doubt that for most of us, singing is a fantastic way to express ourselves and to relieve stress; but there are a variety of other reasons why you should give your favorite (or brand new) song a shot today. The physiological benefits of singing and music have been explored for centuries, possibly even longer than that, so let’s go ahead and deep dive.

This past week, people across North America have been celebrating their country. We know that we have Snappers worldwide from the rolling fields of Ireland to the scenic barrier reef and in honor of that we wanted to host a challenge where everyone could share how awesome their country or town is! Part one of this challenge was to sing any song that related to your country or hometown, and part two was to share where you're proud to be from and who you're proud to be. As always, creativity was highly encouraged and wow, did our Snappers deliver!

To quote American broadcasting service PBS, “In the ‘60s, radio, film, television and books carried the essence of American pop culture. This decade was both exciting and overwhelming; defined by counterculture protests and the civil rights movement, but also iconic fashion styles, music and pop culture in general! Think you’re an expert when it comes to ‘60s tracks? Take a trip back in time with us today to guess the song using ONLY the lyrics. (P.S. The answers are at the bottom - but no cheating allowed!)

We hope you all had as much of a blast as we did this past weekend during our first annual Snap Fest! On Friday we hosted our GLOW CRAZY challenge, a challenge all about spreading bright colors and bright energy. Of course we had to share a few of the incredible submissions (and boy, was it hard to choose). To show some love on these recordings, click on the title of each song!

Especially today, it’s easy to become flooded with thoughts about the future and your daily to-do list. Stress can have a negative effect on your health in so many ways, including the jitters and a rising blood pressure. Not only is singing scientifically proven to help manage high stress levels, but putting on a relaxing playlist may also help you find your zen.

As fun as it is to sing with or without an audience, we know how great it feels to be recognized and appreciated a little extra. The SingSnap community is so talented, which is why we're always doing our best to help our Snappers reach more people! In today's post we wanted to share a few of our pro tips on how you can reach a larger audience on SingSnap and how you can gain more awesome fans.
