Yes, that's fine. You can even watch TV, youtube videos, movies, etc. if you like - as long as you don't find yourself spending most of your time listening/watching rather than drawing. The goal here is not necessarily to be putting your 100% into the drawing, but rather to just relax and let yourself draw without worry.

Great question! I always feel like music or tv would pull my attention away from focusing on using my shoulder.

I don't think drawing from the shoulder is necessarily a requirement of free drawing either (but I get why you'd want to do it anyway)
