00:00Congratulations Tatum, it is always so great to see you.

00:04Congratulations with all of the work you do with Music Health Alliance.

00:08For viewers who may not be aware of it, give me a little bit of what Music Health Alliance

00:12does to help artists and writers and everyone in the music industry.

00:16So we're all things healthcare for everyone who's made a living

00:20in the music industry. Because most of our industry doesn't have access

00:24to healthcare readily available. Our big focus right now

00:28and it's nothing new but the need is so serious

00:32it's mental health.

00:34Well and for both of you, I love that you're here presenting

00:38Her With This Honor tonight. Can you guys both tell me about just from an artist's perspective

00:42the impact that Music Health Alliance has?

00:44Yeah, absolutely. I mean in this world of music

00:48and in this industry of music, most of us, almost all

00:52of us, we start out with nothing. And one of the things that almost none of us

00:56is health insurance. And all it takes is a very small

01:00mishap to ruin your dream. If you have to stop your dream

01:04to pay for healthcare, you're taken out of the game.

01:08And Music Health Alliance and what Tatum has done

01:12is given a lot of musicians opportunities to keep pursuing that dream

01:16amidst maybe the chaos that mental health

01:20or physical health

01:22can cause in their lives.

01:26I mean early on and she's helped us.

01:28I remember my wife

01:30on a freak accident broke her wrist

01:32and this was right when we

01:34around the time we got signed.

01:36When you get signed, you have no money.

01:38Somehow you have less money than you did before you could sign.

01:40And she stepped in and helped my wife

01:42get all of the treatment that she needed

01:44and saved us from like potentially bankruptcy.

01:48So we love and adore her.

01:50She's an adopted Osborne sister to us.

01:54And this world and our community is better

01:56because she's in it.

01:58How about you? Can you talk a little bit about that?

02:02Oh yeah, I totally agree with that.

02:04I feel like, especially in an era where

02:06when they started MHA

02:08now it's a lot more talked about

02:10that there needs to be help

02:12and there's a lot more resources now

02:14but when she first started her work

02:16no one talked about it

02:18and there used to be kind of this mentality

02:20where you had to suck it up,

02:22it's the gig, we're all doing it

02:24and I think it took some people saying

02:26we've got a problem

02:28and then once someone said that

02:29it was just like yeah

02:30everyone's raising their hands

02:31we need help

02:32and if it wasn't for her

02:34there's a lot of other people now

02:36that have gotten into the game to help

02:38but without her breaking the ice for that

02:40I strongly believe that we would be

02:42in the dinosaur age

02:44with like physical help and mental help

02:46and it's amazing to be in an era

02:48to watch that grow

02:50and you know I know she's such an advocate for that

02:52and it's why we're here.

02:54And they have been champions for this little idea

02:58since day one

03:00so it's really cool to be here now

03:02that y'all have success under your belt

03:04and we've got some stories to tell

03:06and we're still standing

03:08it's kind of crazy.

03:10Well and for those that want to help out

03:13whether it's donating,

03:14whether it's just taking part in it,

03:16what is the number one thing they could do

03:18if someone wants to get involved and help out?

03:20We need funding to keep doing what we're doing.

03:22To fuel it, fund it,

03:24go to MusicHealthAlliance.com and donate.

03:26That's what we need.

03:28Thank you both so much. I appreciate it.
