RAMPD.  It’s the latest indication that disabled musicians are emerging as bonafide able musicians. 

The Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities was started in 2021.  Two handicapped musicians got tired of venues that were not ADA compliant. Founders Gaelynn Lea and Lachi also got tired of those who couldn’t see past the musician’s disability. 

Watch Gaelynn play the violin and sing here. 

Keep in mind that this month is the 35^th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act on July 26th.
