15 Best Discord Music Bots August 2022 - All Free & Working

Discord Music Bots allow users to listen to music while playing games or chatting with friends.

Discord has been one of the best platforms to connect with your friends with plenty of features that makes it easy to build a community that share the same interests. One of its features that happens to be much beloved by the masses is the ability to place music bots in their servers.

While this is convenient for many wishing to listen to music on Discord it unfortunately comes at the cost of being frequently in trouble due to copyright issues. In fact Google has placed a Cease and Desist order against Groovy and Rhythm which caused two of the largest Discord music bots to be shut down.

What are Discord Music Bots?
