Anthony Rossomando: Finding Sobriety and Musical Magic

It all stalls out and the money dries up. But what in retrospect looks like a long quest for meaning somehow leads to sobriety and the now legendary collaboration with Gaga, Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt.
What happens when a rock star's life hits a wall? In this episode of The Drunkalogues, host Nick Morton sits down with guitarist and songwriter Anthony Rossomando to uncover the highs and lows of his journey through addiction and recovery. Anthony opens up about the moments when everything seemed to stall, the money dried up, and he was left searching for meaning.
He candidly shares how his struggle with addiction almost derailed his music career and how a surprising encounter with ayahuasca helped him find his way to sobriety. But it’s not just about the battles; Anthony also talks about the magical collaboration that led to the creation of 'Shallow' with Lady Gaga, Mark Ronson, and Andrew Wyatt.
This song, which became a sensation in 'A Star Is Born', holds a special place in his heart, and this conversation brings back all those powerful emotions. Whether you're on your own path to recovery or just love a good behind-the-scenes music story, this episode offers a raw and inspiring look at how sobriety can lead to unexpected and beautiful places.
