The book 'Touring and Mental Health: The Music Industry Manual' is published by Omnibus Press and is the brainchild of music industry psychotherapist and Music Industry Therapist Collective (MITC) founder Tamsin Embleton. It's is a collection of well-researched and rigorous essays authored by experts and academics in the field offering insight, signposting and mental health support for musicians and music industry professionals on the road. Considered the 'go-to' manual for any touring music professional, it has gained (and keeps gaining) massive praise in the national and international press since its launch in March. It's also been wildly praised online by prominent musicians worldwide. An audiobook is now in the works and you can find extra material from the book, further resources and details of workshops online at https://www.touringmanual.com/

Sound Affects Podcast featured Tamsin's Music Industry Therapist Collective back in 2018 (episode 4) when the book was in early stages of development. It's been really lovely following the journey of MITC and the book since then, and I attended the book launch back in March.



Interview recorded April 2023.
