LOS ANGELES, April 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Sound Mind Live announced the return of its annual SOUND MIND MENTAL HEALTH MUSIC FESTIVAL, which will take place as a socially distanced drive-in concert that fans can enjoy from their car as part of the "Concerts in Your Car" series at the Ventura County Fairgrounds. The event will also be streamed live for fans who cannot attend in person.
The third annual event will be hosted by Solomon Georgio and will feature performances from All Time Low, Fitz and The Tantrums, Lovelytheband, Charlotte Lawrence, Matthew Logan Vasquez of Delta Spirit, Ian Sweet and more. The festival serves as a rallying cry for the mental health support needed to begin healing as people across the globe continue to cope with the mental health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"The collective trauma the world has experienced due to the pandemic has awoken us to our shared humanity along the spectrum of mental health," said Sound Mind Live Executive Director Chris Bullard. "As the physical threats of the pandemic begin to wane, now it is more important than ever to foster empathy and open dialogue around mental health so we can heal without battling stigma or a lack of knowledge on these issues.
Demonstrating the urgency of the situation, a recent CDC study found that 41% of individuals are experiencing adverse mental health conditions due to the pandemic — with this number being as high as 75% for young adults — indicating that the road to recovery will be long and lasting. Bringing these issues to the forefront of conversations can help break down stigma surrounding mental health.
