Anna Akana Reveals That Music Saved Her Life & It's How Her Debut Single 'Intervention' Was Born
Anna Akana just dropped the most breathtaking music video for her first single, “Intervention”.
This marks the 29-year-old influencer, and actress’s first foray into the music world.
“I had a scary phase last year when I became convinced I was going to kill myself,” Anna shared with Billboard about the decision to go into music.
“Therapy wasn’t working, I was off my meds, and I was ready to die. I even had a plan,” she adds. “And in the same way that comedy helped me 10 years ago to pull through after the death of my sister, music is what pulled me up from my low point last year.”
Anna continued, “I also feel like I’m more of an adult woman now, and I want to start conveying deeper messages and discussing more important issues, and I think music is an amazing way to do that. I’m happy I can do it!”
Anna‘s forthcoming album, Casualty, expected later this year.
