I think for me to be honest, my own mental health needed a little fixing and I got tired of the grind of dealing with agents and dealing with booking bands and never really having the site on the end game.

In this episode of 'Wolf In Tune', Richard 'Wolfie' Wolf sits down with Kevin Lyman, the mastermind behind The Vans Warped Tour, to pull back the curtain on the mental health crisis plaguing musicians. Lyman shares his firsthand experiences with the pressures of tour life, revealing how boredom, drugs, and social media can create a toxic environment for artists.
But it's not all doom and gloom; Lyman's dedication to philanthropy shines through as he discusses embedding good values into his events and his efforts to promote mental health awareness. He also talks about his latest projects, including teaching event production at USC and the upcoming 320 Festival, a virtual event aimed at spreading mental health awareness. Lyman's honesty about his own mental health struggles adds a personal touch to this insightful conversation.
