Andrew Cole is determined to stop bullying. He was teased while growing up for his career choice as a musician, ironically in Liverpool, the town that spawned the Beatles. Andrew never gave up in spite of the constant daily barrage, and he’s now working with some very well known entertainment industry veterans, including Julian Lennon, Meatloaf, Jeff Goldblum, Ron Sexsmith, Tom Cochrane and Steve Vai, all backed by members of Paul McCartney’s band. on an anti-bullying project.Andrew knows that music has the power to effect change, and inspire people to take action. It is both a rallying cry, and a calming influence. There are many more musicians working alongside Andrew in the quest to save lives and heal the violence and verbal abuse.
Andrew wants other musicians to join the project, people like Britney
Spears, Taylor Swift, John Mayer, and others who he has always seen as a
positive influence.
He started with a song, “Think I’m a Joke,” and it
developed into the documentary. Andrew set out on a mission to bring
awareness through the song, but his journey has been anything but
smooth. His goal is to get the song recorded by many well-known iconic
musicians across the globe, and create a song that echoes the common
goal of raising the awareness of bullying. Along the way he hopes to
record their personal stories, and how music and the support of others
helped them overcome the emotional and physical scars they endured.
The documentary is near completion, but the journey is far from complete.
Andrew Cole, Jeff Goldblum, and Julian Lennon.
