Your Mix 2

November 2023. I removed the cover of my 40 year old Roland U20, blew the dust off the keys and played the first notes after decades of silence. A first glimpse to the past and to the future at the same time.

Into The Blue

Kenmore was a mental institution for voluntary and housed patient's suffering all types of mental anguish, as John was voluntary i was able to pick him up on Fridays to go and do weekend gigs, providing he was released. The waiting room was actually the lounge area housing about 200 or so inmates all with different infliction  and boy was i out of place, complete and utter madness reigned supreme here all control by some level of drug intoxication. 
The mental health crisis that John was facing, our bass players, impacted the entire band. Now, bass players are the backbone of any band. They keep the rhythm tight, and the groove solid. But what happens when the person holding the band together is struggling with their mental health? It’s a question that doesn't get asked often enough. Imagine this- You're in a band, and your bass player—your rock, your foundation—starts showing signs of mental illness. Maybe they’re more withdrawn, or their playing becomes erratic. Suddenly, the chemistry that made your music special begins to falter. The band dynamic changes, and not in a good way. It's not just about hitting the right notes. Music is deeply emotional. When one member is struggling, it affects everyone's performance, creativity, and connection. The energy on stage isn't the same. Rehearsals become tense. It's like the soul of the band is in turmoil. Mental health issues can be debilitating, and the pressure to perform only makes it worse. For bass players, who often feel like the unsung heroes of the band, this can be especially tough. They might not feel comfortable speaking up, worried about letting the band down or being seen as weak. But here’s the thing- ignoring the problem won't make it go away. Bands need to create a supportive environment where members feel safe to express their struggles. Open communication is key. It’s crucial to check in with each other, not just about music, but about mental well-being too. If your bass player—or any band member, for that matter—is facing mental health challenges, encourage them to seek help. Professional counselling, therapy, or even just talking to someone can make a huge difference. And remember, it’s okay to take a break. Sometimes stepping back is necessary for healing and coming back stronger. To all the bass players out there- You matter. Your mental health matters. And to all the bands- Take care of each other. Music is about connection and shared passion. Let’s make sure that connection remains strong and healthy. This is song reflect the feelings and emotions i had within them walls of Kenmore
