"It's not a matter of positive thinking. It's about healing my body. It's about getting my control back." - Andy
Andy talks about his childhood and the turmoil a divorce brings on a child, what religion can do to the perceptions of our foundation, and how easy it is to be taken advantage of in the music industry. You will hear how even as an adult, white, heterosexual, cis-gender male, assault can still happen in a seemingly safe place, and how that trauma can lead to a substance abuse problem. Andy is brave, relentless, and extremely kind. He is working on his healing by breaking familial patterns to live a healthier life for himself and get help for his substance abuse. Most of all Andy is an amazing musician. You'll hear one of his most recent songs, and it is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you for listening!
