“That moment was liberating and I think I’ve been emancipated from so many fears and insecurities. That night was the first time in my whole career where I was actually at peace, and from that little moment, after that I was able to envision doing different things. For me, it was like a new beginning because I was able to face those demons. I could say, ‘Yes I’m confused, yes I’m broken, but am I too damaged to be repaired or feel whole again?’ That concert was like going back to the surface in a way. The person that I was came back.” – Alex Henry Foster
