Music Saved Me is the podcast where inspiring music icons, emerging artists, and healing voices explore music as therapy — hosted by Lynn Hoffman.

Every episode dives deep with musicians personally transformed by the power of sound, tracing each artist's journey — a band's journey through breakup and reinvention, an indie music story of hard-won discovery, or the moment music became a healing tool for someone at their lowest point. From the stories behind new music to the viral music success journeys that shaped careers, Music Saved Me with Lynn Hoffman examines how music can be a powerful healing device for the global mental health crisis, and how healing through music shows up in ways nobody expects.

Lynn Hoffman brings warmth and curiosity to conversations that connect art to emotional healing, spotlighting musicians on call for causes bigger than themselves, nonprofits doing meaningful work, and the inspiring music icons who remind us why music matters.

Music Saved Me is produced by Buzz Knight Media Productions.

 An encore presentation of one of our most powerful conversations. You know him as Trey Lewis — but on this episode, he’s stepping forward as Thomason, the name on his birth certificate and the name behind his rawest music yet. Nearly 20 years sober, Thomason opens up about addiction, recovery, grief, and the white van that carried him from a treatment center in Alabama to chasing his dream in Nashville. He talks candidly about losing his father, his choice not to have children, and why the White Van EP is the most honest work of his career. It’s a conversation about authenticity, healing, and what happens when an artist finally stops performing and starts telling the truth. Lynn Hoffman hosts this Music Saved Me encore episode, produced by Buzz Knight Media Productions.
