On this World Mental Health Day, our attention turns both to our own personal feelings and pressures and to the wider mental health impact that is seemingly burnt-in to the stress-laden world of being a musician or part of a musician's crew.
The non-profit wellness and mental health-oriented organisation Backline has a clear aim - to foster a healthier music community. As it marks its fifth year of existence (which coincides with World Mental Health Day) the team are today sending the industry's key decision-makers a message - and demanding clear and coherent action on a range of issues affecting creatives and personnel working in the music sphere.
