We are pleased to announce that from June 15th, Liam Cromby will be heading out on a busking tour of the UK to raise funds and awareness for Tonic Music.
Liam Cromby tells us more about why his busking for Tonic Music.
I first began busking back in 2019, in Romford high street. Busking, gave myself and my relationship with music purpose. It was such an integral part of my journey to coming back to music. Since then, I started my own business teaching online guitar lessons, joined an awesome covers band “Juke Rox”, recorded and released my debut album “What Can I trust, If I can’t trust true love” as well as performing at “BlackDeer Festival” and most recently, completing a degree in songwriting and production at BIMM university, Manchester.
The journey has been one of many twists and turns but made a little easier by the support of some special company along the way. One of those was Tonic Music!
Tonic Music is a mental health charity, they equip people with essential mental health skills to support themselves, their peers and the wider music communities.
So why Tonic?
Earlier in the year I participated in a peer support group that was run by Tonic Music. I had caught some heavy post tour blues and with an especially dark winter I felt that I could use some additional support. During the weekly peer support group, I found a place to vent and be heard and I found that I wasn’t alone and that there are people within the music industry that have been through similar experiences.
I couldn’t thank Tonic Music enough for their support and so I wanted to find a way of giving back and this is it!
