“I’m very passionate about not showing the world people with disabilities but instead showing people with disabilities the world. We all have the potential to be beautiful, wonderful and talented people,” singer Tobias Forrest says, “I just want to sing.”

And, sing he does. Forrest is the lead singer of the band Cityzen in Los Angeles.

The band offers a great sound and is building a following in clubs and on http://www.myspace.com/CITYZENLA.

“I started the group with Jeff Line. We played in a band in college before my accident. I was almost 23 when I became a C5 quadriplegic. It was May 1998 and I was diving off a waterfall in the Grand Canyon. It was the time of El Niño and the water level was lower. I was told it was safe to dive there, but it was too shallow. I did a little drowning, I did a little dying, but I said Heaven can wait,” Forrest explains with a laugh. “I didn’t lose my sense of humor.”

Cityzen’s tour schedule and music can be found at their mySpace page. Mad talent.
