Brian Bourke: Healing Through Rock to Recovery

I think that's why I was so drawn to rock, to recovery, cause I've, I am so moved by music. Like I, I really resonate with music, I love it and I'm not a musician.
Picture this: a punk rock musician from the Bay Area, caught in the whirlwind of addiction, finds a lifeline through music therapy. That's Brian Bourke's story. In this episode of 'The Elevate Experience', host Angie Manson sits down with Brian, a former member of the band Tsunami Bomb, to talk about his tumultuous journey from addiction to sobriety.
Brian opens up about how his lifestyle of drinking and drugging eventually led him to lose everything, leaving him isolated and broken in the hills of Santa Cruz by 2016. But Brian's story takes a hopeful turn when he reaches out for help and finds sobriety in San Diego. During his treatment, he discovers Rock to Recovery, a program that merges music and therapy to help those in recovery find their voice.
Brian's passion for music becomes a powerful tool in his healing process, and within a year, he joins the Rock to Recovery crew, helping others through their own recovery journeys. In their conversation, Brian and Angie delve into the transformative power of music in recovery and how it can be a beacon of hope for those struggling with addiction.
They also discuss the challenges posed by the pandemic on the addiction and recovery community, highlighting the importance of self-care and staying connected. Whether you're looking for inspiration or practical advice on navigating recovery, this episode offers a heartfelt glimpse into the power of music and community in overcoming addiction. Tune in to hear Brian's story and learn how Rock to Recovery is making a difference.
