Adam Duritz is no stranger to the spotlight. Counting Crows’ 1993 debut album, August And Everything After, sold over seven million copies in the U.S. Singles released from the album including “Mr. Jones” and “Round Here” dominated radio and MTV at the time. But all the exposure wasn’t great for the band, and  according to Duritz, it led critics to focus more on Durtitz’s star-studded dating life, than the band’s music.

Regardless, Counting Crows have continued to release music over the last three decades and this month they are putting out their latest album, Butter Miracle, The Complete Sweets!

Today we’ll hear Adam Duritz talk in-depth about his life-long struggle with mental health and how his dissociative disorder has impacted his ability to connect with people off-stage.
