In this episode of Behind The Mic we checked in with lead singer of Scottish band, La Mantra, Ryan Connor.
In this episode we discuss his music journey and how to avoid being exploited as a young artist in the music industry.
For Ryan’s mental health, we discuss his diagnosis of Autism and ADHD. We explore how it impacted his childhood and adolescence, how its influenced his creativity and how taking medication allows him to regulate his emotions alongside his Autism.
We finish by exploring how music has been an outlet for him to express himself, channel his emotions and improve his mental health in a way that medication and other tools have not.
As always, #itsokaytovent
