Sean Forbes is a musician on a mission. An accomplished and
passionate drummer, rhythm pours out of him, when he breathes, walks,
types at his keyboard or hits his drums. Music is in his blood, his
cells; it’s just the way he is. He’s also deaf – and out to build a
badly needed bridge between the music industry and deaf people
everywhere.
With his passion for music, Sean has opened the door to
musical expression – a world historically considered off limits to
people in the deaf community. His dream of music for all has helped to
transform the way deaf people perceive music. Through his videos and
his outreach to deaf people everywhere – particularly young people
eager to feel included in popular culture – music is being presented to
them as a beautiful symphony of thought and expression, available to
all. The hearing community, too, is fascinated by his ASL translations
of musical hits and is clamoring for more.
Sean Forbes is living proof that if you have enough passion
and dedication, magic happens and dreams come true.
