Grammy-nominated musician Ryan Adams' guitarist Todd Wisenbaker has urged Adams to get help after the musician was accused of emotional abuse and sexual misconduct by several women. A report in the New York Times outlined a pattern of manipulative behaviour, including accusations of psychological abuse from his former wife and actress Mandy Moore.

In a post on Instagram, Wisenbaker suggested that he had previously known about Adams's alleged behaviour, reports rollingstone.com. "There were times when I chose to believe his insane version of the truth because it was easier than believing that anyone is capable of being this much of a monster. It's sickening and embarrassing. I've recently learned that pretty much everything he has ever told me is a lie upon a lie upon a lie," Wisenbaker posted.
