This study explored the influences of music characteristics on consumers' mood and consumption evaluations. The mediator role of consumers' mood in the relation between music characteristics and consumption evaluations was examined.We designed an experiment and use questionnaires to collect 247 valid samples. By using structural equation modeling technique, music fit with the service environment and consumer preference with the music were found to induce consumers' positive and negative moods, and simultaneously improve consumption evaluations (in terms of consumer satisfaction and product evaluation). However, music-induced consumers' mood was not found to influence consumption evaluations. That is, music-induced consumers' mood did not mediate the impact of music characteristics on consumption evaluations.
