The late Crazy Town frontman Sliding Shell Shock was sober and happy a few months before his accidental overdose… and seemed determined to move on.
TMZ has obtained footage of one of Shifty’s final interviews before his sudden death, and he spoke with Mayra Dias Gomes.
The singer – real name Seth Binzer — was an invited guest at the Rock to Recovery benefit concert last August at the Fonda Theater in Hollywood, but he rarely made public appearances.
Shifty told Mayra that he was sober, happy and feeling good about himself. He explained how music and his children give him a purpose in life.
He also said that music was always his therapy and joked that addicts in recovery were the best artists.
Unfortunately, Shifty couldn’t stay sober… he was Found Dead last month and his manager says he died of an accidental drug overdose after mixing prescription drugs with street drugs.
As we first reported… Shifty’s friend and down-to-earth coach, Tim Ryanhe says he was living in a tent in downtown LA’s MacArthur Park, where he had suffered a relapse. He was homeless when he died.
