Small update: I want to thank everyone again for the constant outpouring of kindness I’ve seen here. I keep forgetting that I do have support and I do have people that care because of all of you. I will have an opportunity to continue making music, and will have some coming out quite soon. I just wanted to thank everyone again for contributing or getting the word out so thank you again.  Okay, back to the story:

Hello, everyone. My name is Adam and I’m a musician in North Carolina.

Recently, I’ve had issues finding work that pays a sustainable wage, so I’ve had to go without a few creature comforts lately. One being living in an apartment. I’m currently living in my car right now, and it’s been very difficult to create music when you’re constantly in survival mode. Because of mental health issues, it has been extremely difficult to get a stable living going, but I’ve been going to therapy and medication is also expensive.

I’ve exhausted all of my savings trying to find new work, so I’m barely making enough for food now. Work is only giving me 10 hours a week, and some days I only eat once.

But I still want to make music for everyone. It’s my only happy place. I’ve been working on music throughout this whole ordeal and now I’m almost to the point where I can release new music... but I need your help.

If you could please contribute, you would be saving someone’s life. And my friends have already bent over backwards trying to help me, so I’m trying to take the burden off of them while I still try to find work and put music out for you. Even $5 would go a long way to helping me stay safe while I try to make music.

Thank you so much for reading all of this. If you happen to contribute, I will find a way to thank you, I promise.
