Special Guest Recovery Rocker
Soon after he found heroin, Jam Alker put down his guitar and did not pick it up again for ten-plus years. What followed would be what he calls "the most toxic relationship I've ever been in" - a decade of extreme highs and lows that brought him, literally, to his knees, begging for a long-needed reawakening. "What I found out was that drugs were not my problem; drugs were my solution to my problem."
It was music that helped him change his life - and it's music that continues to keep him on his path. "Music is my therapy. Putting my experiences, both deadly and life saving, into song have helped me to heal. I owe a great deal of my new life to my music," he says.
He chronicles this story of addiction and recovery with his first full-length solo album, Sophrosyne. Learn More
