Singer/Songwriter Ben Danaher is a survivor. A big talent with a soulful voice, he's endured unimaginable tragedy and somehow, he's found a way with his music to the other side; a little bit stronger, more resilient and still feeling lucky. In this episode, Ben opens up and shares the heart-wrenching story of when his brother was shot and killed at his own three-year-old's birthday party. The senseless act of violence grabbed the attention of major news outlets who covered the tragedy for a stunned national audience.
