The Redeemed Man
From Broken Mess to Metal Musician with Trevor Tyson

Off stage, Trevor Tyson is a thoughtful, soft-spoken person devout in his Christian faith. On stage, he’s the bellowing frontman of the heavy metal band Heal the Hurt. But those two personas aren’t at odds with one another—they’re just different voices expressing a similar message. “I know what it’s like to be that kid who has a hard time hearing the pastor say something, but can listen to someone scream about it,” he says.
Trevor freely admits his music isn’t for everyone, but beneath the screaming vocals and thrashing guitars lies a message of empathy—and hope—for people feeling depressed, hopeless, and alone. Trevor talks with Nate Dewberry this week about the mental health journey that inspired the creation of his band, the vital need for men to have people they can share their emotions with, and how Heal the Hurt’s musicians stay true to their Christian convictions while playing the bar scene.
