We welcome Derek Vanderhorst to Counterparts this week. Derek has an incredible story to share and we are honored to have him here.
Derek reclaims his voice on his debut album WILDFLOWER - which was released April 15, 2022. The Folk-Americana artist and acclaimed Hollywood sound designer return to his roots following a devastating head and neck cancer diagnosis.
Derek was diagnosed with stage 4 head and neck cancer in 2016, he was told he might lose his voice–– or worse, die.
After forging a successful Hollywood career as a sought-after film and documentary supervising sound editor and re-recording mixer– known for his work on the Academy Award-nominated No Country for Old Men, as well as Hidden Figures, and The Eyes of Tammy Faye– Derek is now pouring his renewed passion and dedication into the music of his own.
The moment he was diagnosed, he knew his lifelong dedication to music could no longer take a back seat. Now, 5-years cancer-free, (and after hundreds of hours of vocal rehab), Derek has re-claimed his voice as an Americana artist releasing his first-ever solo album, Wildflower, in April 2022.
With his post-cancer outlook on life, Derek hopes to empower and inspire others that it is never too late to find your voice: During recovery, Vanderhorst wrote over 150 songs. Eleven of those songs make up Wildflower. “It’s an album of metaphorically and emotionally going home and becoming grounded,” he explains. “It’s about finding balance in life.”
