Sound Affects Podcast: Music & Mental Health, with Katy Georgiou

Adam Nutter is set to release his debut solo album 'Badlands on Fire' 21st April 2023, alongside a book of artwork by Ross McCully, all available to purchase on www.adamnutter.com

In this episode, Adam talks through the heartbreak and loss of identity he experienced when The Music disbanded, and how this interplayed with his experiences with ADHD and bipolar disorder, which he received a formal diagnosis for in his late 20s.
