ABLE Voices EP 33: Sanjeev Mann

Dr. Rhoda Bernard, founder and managing director of The Berklee  Institute for Accessible Arts Education is proud to present the ABLE  Voices podcast featuring artists and arts educators with disabilities.    We are inviting disabled artists and arts educators to be guests and  guest hosts on ABLE Voices. Today's guest host is Alex James. Alex James  is a singer, songwriter, multi instrumentalist and teacher from the  northeast of England. Alex suffers from a rare muscle wasting condition  known as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), but turns this into a  positive, channelling his pain into writing music. Alex is also the  singer of the world's first DMD fronted alternative rock band known as  Alex James, challenging the pre conceptions of rock music, bringing  wheelchairs onto the stage and advocating for change in the music  industry.   Today, Alex will be interviewing Sanjeev Mann, also known by his stage  name, Supermann on da Beat. Sanjeev Mann is a Scottish and South Asian  music producer, hip hop artist, content creator and disability advocate.  Like Alex, Sanjeev also lives with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).  Sanjeev works as a freelancer with various companies including Drake  Music Scotland and BBC Social, and also runs Hip Hop Scotland, a  platform for local hip hop artists. The ABLE Voices podcast is produced and edited by BIAAE Operations  Coordinator, Daniel Martinez del Campo. The introduction music was  written by Kai Levin and the ending song was written by Sebastian  Batista. Kai and Sebastian are students in the Arts Education Programs  at the Berklee Institute for Accessible Arts Education.For more information about our programs visit us at:  https://college.berklee.edu/BIAAEFollow us for more weekly updates at:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/berkleeiaae/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BerkleeIAAE
