About Marv Radio
Who is Marv Radio?
World class showman. Speaker. Host. Workshop Leader. Breathworker. Sound Magician. Marv Radio is the Vocal AlKemist. This 3x UK Champion Beatboxer and voice magician combines live vocal looping, storytelling, coaching, breathwork and sound journeys to inspire and elevate audiences of all kinds and provide holistic wellbeing services for retreats, in person and online sessions.
Origin Story
Music, voice and sound is an intrinsic part of Marv's life, helping him transform from a depressive teenager and suicide survivor to a transformational voice coach, internationally known performance artist, musical innovator, sound therapist, workshop leader and meditation teacher. Marv owes his life to music, so he has given his entire being to raising the collective vibration through his creative works.
Purpose
Marv travelled to South America for the first time in 2013 and many times since to learn from ancient shamanic cultures, which has inspired him to combine his musical knowledge and esoteric wisdom, creating his own unique brand of hip-hop healing, life coaching and sound therapy. His mission is to positively impact the world through culture and art and to empower people through his coaching, art and healing. His dream is to make conscious music as successful and marketable as any contemporary style of music and positively impact the world while doing so. Marv is now releasing new music on a monthly basis and supporting individuals and groups through his coaching.
Marv developed VolKemi (Vocal Alchemy) as a coaching container to help others to live according to their purpose, clear negative conditioning, awaken their voices and step into their full abundance.
Marv Radio was selected as one of Sound Connections 2019 “New Voices” scheme, being chosen from hundreds of applicants to be supported in creating new and exciting musical works with financial, organisational and mentor support. This led to the beta version of Marv’s all vocal album “Mantra”, which can be downloaded
ON BANDCAMP
He developed the Mantra one man show with funding from Arts Council England in 2019. He has sold out Camden People's Theatre and Oxford Playhouse as well as showcasing the piece at Streatham Space, Rich Mix and RADA Studios.
With a music, theatre and performance background, Marv Radio sets every stage on fire with dynamic, varied and exciting world-class performances with a message of liberation for the audience. His message is simple; it is time for humans to embrace the fullness of who they are and take responsibility for our own lives while transforming into our greatest selves.
Marv's beatbox beats are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, his use of a loopstation to create live songs and soundscapes is mesmerising and his ability to channel pre-written and improvised songs is uplifting and inspiring.
He is an accomplished workshop leader, providing his unique hip hop workshops for educational, creative and corporate environments. He has taught all kinds of people, including under 5s, young children teenagers, people with special needs, ting offenders, adults, over 60s, businesses, employees and laryngectomy patients who had their voice boxes removed due to cancer.
His dream is to make conscious music as successful and marketable as any contemporary style of music and positively impact the world while doing so.
