Tonight, on "World Mental Health Day", we will be raising funds for the charity Richmond Mind.
Kindred Spirit Band are hoping, with their new album story, to show what experiencing a severe mental health condition can feel like from the inside, so increasing understanding and appreciation of this illness. They will also take the audience on a dive deeper into the mind, through a portal, on an epic adventure to find healing and a way back to reality. As the journey progresses through a fantastic dream world, we overcome obstacles and meet magical characters, most of whom give us helpful, uplifting advice.
Elaine has featured on television, radio, Glastonbury and Liverpool's Cavern Club, while the full band have featured at Cambridge Rock Festival and The Exchange, Twickenham to name a few.
