Sept. 23, 2024 – Late nights, life on the road, booze and bad habits. The rock star lifestyle is the slipperiest of slopes. Ash Grunwald knows all about it.
In 2017, the blues and roots star was shattered. The pressures of life in the public eye, touring, constantly creating, regular binge drinking, was dragging his health.
Grunwald faced his demons, and flushed them out with a guide to getting sober, “How I Quit Alcohol: A Rock N Roll Guide To Sobriety & Living Well,” which he co-wrote with Carr.
“I think a lot of people have been there, or are still there, suffering in silence with alcohol problems. Hopefully the sharing of our story is helpful,” Grunwald tells Tone Deaf. “We just want to help to help people who want it and share our story. And hopefully reduce the stigma around this topic.”
In it, the couple open up on their drinking and how it impacted them, their kids, friends and family, and setting a course for the other side.
“Sometimes there’s a stigma with pulling up completely. It’s almost as if, you quit alcohol then you must have been a really big alcoholic,” he admits.” (Photo: Ash and wife, Danni Carr:)
