Story
Hello, I’m Harry
I’ve spent most of my adult life touring in bands, playing shows and meeting people night after night. One thing that’s stayed with me over the years is what people say after the music stops.
So often, conversations drift away from setlists or gear and turn into something deeper — stories about hard times, grief, anxiety, loneliness, or simply trying to get through another week. A lot of people tell me that music helped them survive those moments, or that coming to a show gave them a brief escape when they really needed it.
That’s stuck with me, because music has always been a place of refuge for me too. But I’m also aware that an escape, however powerful, isn’t always enough on its own.
This is why I’m supporting this mental health foundation. They offer free counselling to people who might otherwise go without — a chance to be heard, supported, and taken seriously when things feel overwhelming. That kind of access can be life-changing.
If music has ever helped you through a hard time, or if you believe everyone deserves support when they need it most, I’d love for you to be part of this.
I’m also going to be reaching out to some other artists in our community to come do portions of the walk with me, thus raising more awareness and hopefully more donations!
Thank you for reading, and for caring.
