This week on Disabled and Proud Brooke Millhouse is joined by Blaine Harrison, lead singer of Mystery Jets.   Blaine was born with the disability spina bifida, which has affected his leg muscles since he was a child. In the early stages of his life he struggled to come to terms with his disability but now he is a proud role model for other people living with disabilities.   For him, playing live as someone with a physical impairment is sometimes hard work, seeing as many modern facilities still do not have the means to cater for disabled people. Blaine is an advocate for venue accessibility and his band will only play in venues that have made an effort to cater for people with disabilities.   In this episode you will hear: Blaine's struggle to accept his disability  What it is like to be a touring musician with a disability Why more venues and festivals should improve their accessibility How Blaine's health affected his ability to perform with his band Mystery Jets   Enjoyed this show? Tell us your favourite moment by connecting with Brooke via https://www.instagram.com/disabledandproudpodcast/   About This Show:  Disabled and Proud is the show that brings listeners a different perspective on disability. Each week this podcast highlights an awesome disabled guest speaking about their own disability; why they are proud to be disabled and why they are proud to be themselves.    The conversations in this show will look at what challenges these amazing people face socially, mentally, physically and life in general. This show is raw, open, honest, funny, welcoming and educational.    Disabled & Proud does exactly what is says on the tin! And whilst we are creating this space for disabled people to be unashamedly themselves, without need to conform for society, this is also not about toxic positivity. This show will be shining a big, bright light on disability without it being “Paralympic or pity”.    As you will hear disability is WHOLE, COMPLETE & PERFECT and whilst the topic of disability can be quite heavy - and we definitely don't shy away from the bad days - this podcast is also about having fun too! Our aim is to play a part in reclaiming the word disability - turning it from inadequacy to perfection!

On stage, Blaine is the lead singer of legendary indie band the Mystery Jets. Off stage, he has been spearheading a movement to make music more accessible for people living with disabilities, working with the charity Attitude Is Everything to improve access to live music. Blaine sat down with host Georgia Moot for Talking Tough to chat the need to make space for peoples differences, and what we can all do to make music more accessible for everyone.

Mystery Jets are a three-piece indie band from London, who first made a name for themselves over a decade ago. Approaching their sixth studio album, lead singer Blaine Harrison found himself amidst the turmoil of post-Brexit London. While living around the corner from Trafalgar Square, Blaine weaved himself into the crowds of the EU rallies, the Extinction Rebellion, even far-right groups like Britain First and the National Defence League. The album birthed from this period, A Billion Heartbeats, navigates through all of the problems that both unite and separate us, reminding  us that we all need to fight for compassion.

Blaine Harrison is the lead singer of indie band Mystery Jets. He sends us a diary today from the his apartment in Clerkenwell, where he is staying as a property guardian.
