Many Voices playlist: Arlo Parks, De La Soul, KeiyaA, DJ Sliink and more
As a Commissioning Editor in the Many Voices programme, I’m looking at the experiences of underrepresented voices in Scottish arts and culture and to run alongside this project, I publish a weekly playlist of new tracks by artists of colour.
