Throughout history, music has been a conduit for people to communicate their thoughts and emotions. It’s an art form that connects people from all walks of life and has the power to express feelings that words alone cannot. However, what happens when an artist experiences mental health issues or loses touch with their authenticity? This is where David McKee and Another Angle Consulting come in.
David’s exceptional approach to songwriting entails integrating psychology into the process. He acknowledges that genuine creativity stems from a place of authenticity and encourages his clients to delve into their innermost thoughts and emotions to produce music that resonates with them and their audience. With the aid of his team of specialists, David employs various therapeutic methods to help his clients surmount obstacles and express themselves fully.
David recently welcomed Catherine Renee Tracy, with her expertise in photography and branding, collaborates with David at Another Angle Consulting to guide artists towards personal growth and development while enhancing their social media presence, all while promoting self-care and mental well-being among musicians. David also has leaned on his best friend and colleague Ryan Howell throughout the growth of Another Angle Consulting. “Ryan has been able to add a level of expertise in the management of everything I do. He’s always had my back for support and without his advice, guidance, and support this company wouldn’t have ever made it off the ground.” David shared.
Another Angle Consulting is making a difference in the music industry by promoting self-care and mental well-being among musicians. This company offers one-on-one coaching sessions, workshops, and training sessions to help musicians improve their mental health and well-being.

Their mission is to create a culture of self-care in the music industry and to show that taking care of oneself is a sign of strength. In addition to their work with musicians, Another Angle Consulting is partnering with organizations to raise awareness and funds for mental health initiatives, making a positive impact on the world as a whole.
Some of David’s clients feedback reads, ‘A few months into COVID, I was asked by my record label to speak to this guy David McKee. I was going through addiction issues, a terrible breakup with my boyfriend, and illness and death in my family. I didn’t want to share with anyone what I was going through, but a friend encouraged me to try it.’
‘The experience changed my life. I was in some of the darkest moments of my life and I never felt safer sharing my innermost thoughts and feelings with David. He changed my life and helped me find a way to cope that I thought was impossible. I had contemplated suicide and I thought saying that would scare anyone away.’
‘David made me a priority when no one else in my life would. He spent countless hours and late nights hearing me pour out my feelings and he helped me find the silver lining of what I went through. I owe him so much and I asked him how I could repay him. His response still sticks with me to this day. He simply said “be present and truly listen to someone going through something traumatic and pay it forward.” I still talk to him a few times a month, and every facet of my life has improved since he’s been my person to talk to. It’s scary to imagine my life without him, he’s a living and breathing angel who cared more about me in the first 5 minutes meeting him then anyone else ever had in my life.”
