Behind the Music: How MusiCares Helps Artists Overcome Addiction

Addicts are not bad people trying to get good, they are sick
The glitz and glamour of the music industry often hide a darker side filled with temptations and struggles. In this episode of 'I Took the High Road', host Jacob Jansen sits down with Harold Owens, the Senior Director of MusiCares, to shed light on the crucial support the Musicians Assistance Program (MAP FUND) provides. Harold shares his personal battle with addiction, underscoring that those grappling with substance abuse are not bad people but individuals in need of help.
The conversation dives into how MusiCares steps in with interventions, referrals, and financial aid, providing a lifeline to musicians who might otherwise fall through the cracks. With over $687,000 spent on treatment for more than 700 individuals this year alone, MusiCares is making a tangible difference. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the behind-the-scenes efforts to support artists and change perceptions about addiction.
Tune in to hear about the transformative power of community and compassion in the music world.
