For some people, music can be a huge stress reliever.  But how do the people who make the music deal with the fast growing industry? Katie chats to Jamie about being in a band, and what it is like to not feel good enough. According to a new study conducted by Record Union, 73% of musicians suffer with either anxiety, depression or stress, but only 45% of them felt that there was enough support. Katie and Jamie explore the reasoning behind the figures, and how music can be used as therapy. 

If you are affected by anything discussed in this podcast you can get help in many different places. Don't be scared to go to your GP, you wouldn't think twice if you had a broken leg.
