An application for a music system includes an enclosure and at least one cavity formed in the enclosure. The cavity(s) have side slots sized to interface with a hand of a person and have an opening towards the top. The opening towards the top of each of the cavities is sized to accept and hold a microphone. The cavities are used to carry the system and alternately hold one or more microphones.
