HeartSupport and Beneath The Skin are joining forces, creating what should be an industry standard–mental health support for those who need it most. The music community, especially within heavier genres, always promotes improved mental health but is frequently underserved. August Burns Red’s vocalist Jake Lurhs and Beneath The Skin’s founder Brittany Mullins recognize this phenomenon and decided to combine their efforts with the topic to create a fully-fledged mental health program.

These frequent collaborators have learned each other’s techniques, establishing a dynamic necessary to undertake such a heavy task. Previously, they have developed a symbiotic connection, one which flows naturally to breathe life into ideas. 

Now, their joint program aims to connect a mentor with a mentee. Sometimes, people just need a small helping hand to get through tough times. Music fans often seek solace in the songs they love the most. Fostering a sense of community with people who “get it” can help them grow in ways they may not have known were possible.

Eventually, the mentees of the partnership will recognize the strength they have within themselves. This collaborative partnership reminds participants and observers alike that the foundation of any music scene is a community that supports its members.
