Find out why one of Hollywood's successful child actors walked away from a Disney pilot to find his own voice in the chaotic world of independent rock.

Field Cate is an actor and musician known for playing the young Ned in Pushing Daisies and voicing Buddha in the Buddies film franchise. He is now the frontman for the band Fencer.

Field shares the "ridiculous" reality of child commercial auditions and why National commercials are the ultimate financial win for parents. He gets vulnerable about his mental health journey with Borderline Personality Disorder and how it fuels the lyrics for his band, Fencer. The conversation covers the "Wild West" of the modern music industry and why he prefers the creative control of a stage to the session-musician feeling of a film set.

A candid look at the transition from child star to independent artist.
