Drive

It’s no doubt that blasting music at a ridiculously high level can be fun, but have you ever stopped to think about the damage that does to your ears? Professional musicians are now calling on Aussies to be smarter about their hearing health. Sticky Fingers lead guitarist, Seamus Coyle, is now living with tinnitus thanks to many years of listening to music too loudly. To discuss this, Drive was joined by Professor David McAlpine, Macquarie University’s Director of Hearing Research at the Australian Hearing Hub.
