"The health and wellness of our music industry colleagues and fans alike is critical. I believe by spreading the word through SPIN platforms, we can drive people to take action and truly improve society by assisting those who need help."

Jimmy Hutcheson, CEO, SPIN

"Having a recovery specialist travel on tour allowed us to give support to our artists and crew on a daily basis."

Kevin Lyman, Professor of Practice, USC & CEO, Kevin Lyman Group

"Our business is often conducted in environments that do not encourage sobriety. This can be alienating and uncomfortable for those who choose to pursue a sober lifestyle and dangerous for those who must. A2IM wholeheartedly supports this initiative to affirmatively embrace sobriety as an active choice in music culture."

Dr. Richard J Burgess, MBE, President & CEO, A2IM

"I've struggled with mental health all my life. Many times, I would feel very isolated in my emotions and turn to unhealthy forms of escape. I found that openly talking about my depression and anxiety has created a safe space and sense of community. This is very important especially for creatives who constantly find themselves in very vulnerable situations."

Judith Hill, Artist

"As someone who has seen first-hand how devastating substance abuse can be for creatives, I fully support the 1 Million Strong initiative."

Mikkel Eriksen, Stargate

"We love supporting the #1MillionStrong initiative. Mental health & addiction are near and dear to our hearts. Whatever we can do help the cause, count us in!"

Greg Williamson & Nicole Rechter, Founders, RWE Partners

"The health and well-being of artists and fans is priority one for the music industry. Record labels are proud to invest in and support addiction recovery and mental health programs that meet creators where they are."

Mitch Glazier, Chairman and CEO, RIAA

"The music industry leads the pack when it comes to influencing what is cool. Unfortunately, a lot of destructive behaviors are celebrated. This harms artists and audiences. But the same power can be used to help and heal!"

Darryl "DMC" McDaniels, Artist

"The One Million Strong initiative is a bold and beautiful effort to make significant strides in supporting the human beings responsible for the live music that millions of people enjoy. But I would argue that one million people strong actually leads to ten million people strong! Good begets good. Wellness begets wellness. We have a chance at this moment in time to have an impact in attacking these problems. "
