In this episode, Troy speaks with Patt Ochoa of Harmonium. Harmonium is a non-profit which you can find at many different music festivals across the USA. Their purpose is to provide support and information to those who seek the comfort and camaraderie of other clean and sober people at festivals. Established in 2002 at the first Bonnaroo Music and Art Festival. A gathering of like-minded individuals concluded the need for support each year and would return, in part, because of their presence. Harmonium was invited to the first Lockn’ Music Festival in 2013 which was their first growth outside Bonnaroo and in 2014 saw growth that invited them to 12 total music festivals including Beyond Wonderland, Electric Daisy Carnival, Bonnaroo, Paradiso, Lockn', Lollapalooza, Outside Lands, Nocturnal Wonderland, Austin City Limits, and Countdown.
