Radio Personality and DJ Dan Amsden, aka Huggie, thrived on boldness, charisma, and intensity on and off the mic when it came to his radio career of 10 years to DJing as ‘TVTV.’ To keep up the momentum and party life, he turned to cocaine, eventually leading him to rehab. After a year of being clean and sober, Huggie is grounding his creative passions by leaning into music, producing, and keeping an open mind towards what makes him grow into ‘the artist way’ of living while inspiring others around him to recover out loud.
