"The unassailable fact is that music has, quite literally, saved my life, and I believe the lives of countless others. It provides company where there is none, understanding where there is confusion, comfort where there is distress and sheer unpolluted energy where there is a hollow shell of brokenness and fatigue" ~ James Rhodes.
James Rhodes tells his story in the 2015 book Instrumental: a Memoir of Madness, Medication and Music (Canongate). The book features an accompanying music soundtrack available on Spotify.
