A telling story of the power we all hold in the tip of our finger. Recorded at TEDxVancouver at Rogers Arena on November 14, 2015
With a career spanning over two decades, Prevail has been blessed to travel around much of the world. In doing so, he has been presented with a platform from which to connect community. As co-frontman for Canadian music group Swollen Members, Prevail has been the recipient of four Juno, seven MuchMusic and numerous Western Canadian and Radio awards.
In recent years, he has focused his sights on philanthropic work, mainly as an ambassador for a therapeutic charity: Music Heals. A combination of entrepreneurial projects, including PrevailPrevail.com, BloodType Media and Kitsilano Records have inspired Prevail to explore different mediums of art and communication. His hallmark style of storytelling is a celebration of foundational poetry blended through the rhythmic device of rap music. Prevail’s continual admiration for art encourages him to watch, listen, and mostly learn.
