You can use Multiprocessing library to achieve this.

from playsound import playsound
from multiprocessing import Process


process_for_sound = Process(target=playsound, args=('The Music which i want run in the background',))
process_for_sound.start()
process_for_sound.join()

#The code you want to run in the concurrently.

That is really helpful. How could I do it if I wanted to run something in the background other than playing music.
You can call any function of your choice by using this method. Please refer to the docs for much more advanced features.
I have tried your solution but only goes to concurrent code.
This is the solution that I've used for a similar problem of mine. If you could give a better explanation of what is required, I might be able to help you
I am making a game with turtle graphics and want the music to play in the background.

from threading import Thread

Thread(target=playsound, args=('\dir\to\music')).start()

'Concurrent code'
