We both suffer from mental health issues that fluctuate day to day. Through these shows, we feel we can connect with people facing similar issues and help them not feel alone. Our "scene" is full of stories about people who didn't survive. We want to change that." - Jason Mack

It's like a big GROW UP and treat women better cause we're just so sick and tired of it. We want everyone that has ever felt like this to have something they can belt out their frustration too."
