Hank Atherton of male//gaze

male//gaze guitarist Hank Atherton joins host Jason Schreurs to talk about the link between creative expression and depression. When faced with times where he was unable to create music or be in a band, Hank found himself in darkness and isolation. Over the years, he has realized how important creativity has been to his mental health.
