Description

You know him as the bassist from Disturbed—but behind the flames, the theatrics, and the platinum records is a man with a story you won’t believe. In this episode, John Moyer sits down with Saraya to reveal how sheer willpower (and zero chill) took him from phone gigs and rejection letters to standing on stage with one of the biggest rock bands in the world. From outlasting 300 other musicians in an open audition, to confronting addiction and starting a brand-new chapter in sobriety, John’s story is raw, real, and so Rulebreakers.




We’re checking in with him again later this year—so stay tuned.
