Please welcome Mari Fong, Executive Producer and Podcast Host at CHECK YOUR HEAD: Mental Health for Musicians Podcast.
“When I first heard the news that Chris Cornell had lost his life to suicide, the news hit me hard,” says Mari Fong, who had covered Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave) during her many years as a music journalist. “Then when Chester Bennington of Linkin Park took his own life just two months later and soon after AVICII (Tim Bergling) did the same, I just couldn’t believe it.
Here were artists whose music brought me and many others so much joy, and now they were gone. I knew I had to do something, but something that would actually make a difference.”
