About this episode
Tamsin Embleton is the author and editor of the book Touring and Mental Health: The Music Industry Manual . This book is a must-have for anyone who works in or around the live music business. It’s also a fascinating read for those who want to know what life really is like on the road. It’s not all glamorous. The grueling life on the road can take its toll. Often times musicians find themselves without the knowledge to handle the physical and psychological stresses that can mount over time. This book offers an in-depth insight into how to manage all of it. Written by experienced healthcare and performance experts, it gives real-life advice, the latest research, and helpful tactics for addressing mental health, performance anxiety, addiction, relationships, physical well-being, diversity, and more. Adding their personal experiences to the book are musicians including Nile Rodgers and Justin Hawkins along with prominent touring personnel. Touring and Mental Health is designed to be read on the road. Pick it up, pick a section, and put it down after, or read it at length. When you’re done, you’ll want to pass it around the tour bus. I’m really looking forward to talking to Tamsin about this book, how it all came about, and how it was all put together.
