Series 2, Episode 5 - Sam Fryer of Gently Tender on how the band helped him recover, finding mindfulness, and singing with his musical hero

On Episode 5 of Series 2, I am joined by Sam Fryer of Gently Tender – a couple of weeks after the release of EP (or is it an album?) This Once Was Fields. We discuss recovering from the trauma of one band breakup by using your next band to instil positivity, the benefits of walking, cricket, and meditation, the meaning behind many lyrics, and our shared experience of late ADHD diagnosis and realising what helps to prevent it turning you into an anxious puddle.If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe to the podcast on your favourite podcast app. You can also subscribe to the Mental Notes website, or follow me on Instagram.
