Daniel McCartney is back! It’s been two years since he first launched The Continuance Foundation, a non-profit organization on a mission to bring mental health services to musicians at no cost.

Over the last two years, most of us have had a lot of extra time at home.

Or at least that’s what Christo Bowman, lead singer of indie-rock band Bad Suns did. “I’ve never even seen the [original] movie,” says Bowman when I ask him about the experience. We’re chatting via Zoom—he’s in the green room at the Rialto… Read more »
