What if you could listen to music on a headset without putting anything into or over your ear canal?

It sounds counter-intuitive, but here’s a concept that frees your ears to pick up ambient noise while you groove to your favorite tunes.

Sound Band is a wireless headset that does away with speakers and delivers surface sound through a vibrating band that sits on the back of your ear.

I can think of many reasons why I’d like to ditch my earbuds (tangled wires is the biggest), and Sound Band promises clear sound without the hassle of putting something in your ear and taking it out, over and over again.
