Shain Shapiro is the world’s leading authority on music as an instrument for change, from healthcare and climate to economic development and cities. His argument, developed over two decades of work in more than 150 cities and places, is that music is infrastructure, and treating it that way changes what societies can do. His second book, How Music Can Save the World, is published on 9 February 2027 by Duncan Baird / Penguin Random House. It makes the case that music belongs inside the systems we use to solve our biggest problems — development finance, healthcare, climate policy, crisis recovery and education — and shows what happens in the places already proving it. This book is supported by a podcast of the same name, produced by acclaimed music media company DrownedinSound. His first book, This Must Be The Place: How Music Can Make Your City Better (Repeater, 2023), became the defining text of the music cities movement: thousands sold, editions in Spanish, Italian, Arabic, Japanese and Portuguese, plus an audiobook, and a 90+ date global tour.
