JD McGibney is a warrior guitarist that conquers his battlefields on the wings of dragons. Uniting with the forces of likeminded individuals, he fights to strengthen worldly brotherhood and lays his experiences bare for others to see the power of one’s trials and tribulations. With a humble beginning on Long Island, New York, JD McGibney developed a strong bond with playing guitar. He found that the anxiety and inner turmoil growing within him throughout adolescence was kept at bay with the power of music.
This act of self discovery began his mission to help others conquer their own inner demons. Through his candid transparency JD McGibney uses the communal bonding power of music and entertainment to remind people that no matter what their struggle, they are never alone. Growing his career in both Los Angeles and New York City, JD McGibney has lent himself to aid likeminded and inspiring people. Helping to facilitate projects and events that aimed to build on the sense of community within the world of entertainment.
From the first moment he stepped on stage as a teenager, JD McGibney was drawn to the connection he found people developed over their love of art. He made a promise to himself to get involved with as many opportunities to continue bringing this community together to strengthen their unity. As a teenager, JD McGibney had been inspired by the lives of his music idols. As a professional, he was inspired by the resolve of his mentor, and the people he surround himself with in the entertainment industry.
Experiencing first hand the power of inspiration and encouragement, JD McGibney goes out of his way to encourage people to take that next first step they might be afraid to take in their lives. Sharing his own personal process, JD lives transparently to show others the possibility of the impossible.
“I’m honored to further grow my relationship with the This Is My Brave community by formally becoming a “Brave Ambassador.” I fully support TIMB’s mission to change the conversation around mental health, and encourage people to open up about their own experiences. Having shared a portion of my own story during the 2022 Show in Los Angeles was one of the most pivotal moments and defining experiences of my life. The freedom I felt opening up in the environment that Brave encourages is a feeling I am looking forward to spread to others around the world.”
