A FATHER. A SON. THE MUSIC THAT REMAINED.
He Never Forgot How To Sing
My dad, Teddy Mac, was a singer all his life. But when Alzheimer's began to take away his memories, music became our way of finding each other again.
During the most difficult years, we would drive through the countryside singing together. I began recording those moments and sharing them online, never imagining what would happen next.
Then Something Extraordinary Happened...
Dad's singing went viral around the world. Together, we helped raise £150,000 for Alzheimer's charities — and, after a lifetime performing in clubs, Dad finally signed his first record deal.
This is our story.
