The Charmer was born out of the isolation and self-reflection of the 2020 pandemic, exploring themes of mental health and depression, something Vaden is speaking about publicly for the first time.
In the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing video shorts that take a deeper look at the songs on The Charmer.
If you’ve been to a show, you’ve seen us invite local mental health and wellness organizations to be part of the night. That will continue, and so will conversations around mental health.
Content note: These video includes discussion of mental health, depression, and suicide.
If you or someone you know is struggling, you’re not alone.
