“I’ve Never Had Better Days:” Dillon Francis Opens Up About Sobriety’s Impact on His Career
In a recent podcast interview, Dillon Francis opened up about sobriety and how the lifestyle affords him self-assurance and creativity.
Speaking with The XLNT Show, a podcast for discussions surrounding electronic dance music culture and production, Francis highlighted the snowball effect of drinking, especially when performing multiple nights in a row. In his case, the hangovers lasted just as long, which proved detrimental to his work.
"I don't want to have to have something to make me feel like I'm good at my job," he explained. That sentiment, he added, ultimately led to him to adopting sobriety.
With each sober performance, Francis found his confidence levels rising as the "awkward" feelings dissipated. He says he became more comfortable standing in front of the masses as well as getting on the mic to speak to them. "I'm at such a better place," he proclaimed.
Francis said he's now approaching three years of sobriety and "can't imagine going back."
