We're three musicians who recently reunited to record a song after being friends for 20 years. When writing the lyrics, we quickly learned that we all struggle with mental health. The friendship has grown and we have a story to tell. Join us in talking about music, mental health, Bipolar Disorder, Clinical Depression and a lot of laughter as we bring a casual community approach to this world many of us are struggling to navigate. Let's talk about the hard things. Let's talk about friendship. Let's talk about the scared, the crazy, the hilarious, and the ever-moving thing we call the spectrum. Join us as we learn more about each other and let's figure this out together.

Giving Grace

They discuss religion from all angles, from what it gets right to what it gets totally wrong. This is a very frank discussion which is not only specific to Christianity but to all forms of philosophy. Please note that suicide and suicidal ideations are discussed.
