Blue Funk Podcast - "GET THE FUNK OUT"
Currently in Pre-Production for Spring 2026
The touring industry is often romanticized as a non-stop adventure of sold-out shows and travel. However, beneath the stage lights lies a grueling reality of sleep deprivation, isolation, and immense pressure. GET THE FUNK OUT, a podcast by Blue Funk, tackles these "quiet" challenges head-on by creating a dedicated space for honest conversations about mental health in the music and events world.
What the Podcast Covers
Hosted with empathy and raw honesty, the show invites guests from every corner of the touring circuit—from front-of-house engineers and tour managers to the artists themselves. The discussions go beyond surface-level "road stories" to explore:
- The Transition: Managing the "post-tour blues" and the jarring shift from high-adrenaline shows to everyday life at home.
- Coping Mechanisms: Practical advice on how professionals maintain their sanity while living out of a suitcase.
- Breaking the Stigma: Normalizing the struggle with anxiety, depression, and burnout in an industry that often demands a "show must go on" attitude.
Why It Matters
By highlighting the personal mental health journeys of industry veterans, GET THE FUNK OUT serves as both a support system for those currently on the road and an educational tool for those looking to enter the business. It’s a reminder that while the industry can be tough, no one has to navigate the "blue funk" alone.
