"Invisible" - The Musical.

Hi folks,

Just thought we would let you know that the Scottish Head Injury Music Support Group are working on a new project.

It is a musical written about the impact and effects of acquired and traumatic brain/head injuries.

We already have 12 songs written and recorded by ABI/TBI survivors about the journey we all face and the invisible nature of the injuries and how it affects the individual, family, friends, carers, etc.

The hard work will now be getting the project from the storybook to the stage. SHIMS members after all suffer from the physical and cognitive effects.

We have called the musical "Invisible" based on our signature song which you can listen and read the lyrics here youtube.com/watch?v=7tpKSam...

I won't do so because of copyright - but how I would love to put on FB if only the people I know but never see never see now - because they can't cope, with personality changes, don't understand or know what brain injury is and its effects. As the song says 'Invisible' - its just so relevant to Brain Injury!

Please by all means share the YouTube link to specific songs.

Our songs are about raising awareness - and if those songs reach out and help one person then they have achieved what we set out to do.

All our current videos some with lyrics are at youtube.com/user/SHIMSGROUP...

We also have our latest album which is availble for free download at soundcloud.com/shimsgroup/s...

In return all we ask is that people provide us feedback either on here or by email at shimsgroup@gmail.com

We are also on twitter @SHIMSGROUP where you can follow our progress
