Rock Recovery
Ep. 12 Jim Sonefeld - HOLD MY HAND
Jim Sonefeld is the drummer and songwriter for Hootie and the Blowfish, and the author of "Swimming with the Blowfish: Hootie, Healing, and One Hell of a Ride." The first single, “Hold My Hand,” a tune Sonefeld brought to the band early on, helped thrust Hootie & the Blowfish into its great success, and likewise showcases his songwriting ability. In the years to follow, the band would record six more studio albums and receive numerous awards, among them, two GRAMMYS®.
For a time, there was no bigger band in the world than Hootie & the Blowfish—Jim reveals the inside story of the band's humble beginnings, meteoric rise, sudden fall, and ultimate rebirth—and in the telling he opens his heart to readers about addiction, recovery, and faith. Jim opens up about his faith and how he found God amid an intense struggle with stardom, alcoholism, and drug addiction.
