Sheba settles into life with her adoptive family. But it quickly becomes evident that neither party is actually who the other thought them to be. As Sheba struggles to maintain her identity, she finds a quirky group of kids at school, who become her tribe. As the Dull’s basically leave Sheba to her own device, she begins writing, recording, and posting to her Youtube channel late at night in her room, building an audience.
“My Name Is Sheba,” is the biweekly fictional saga of iconic jazz/R&B artist, Sheba Hawkins, who rose from obscurity as an orphan, to superstardom, and the music she created along the way. It’s also about the creative life, and the beautiful struggle... a different kind of story.
“My Name Is Sheba” is written around the original music from the album of the same name, by singer/songwriter Kandace Springs. You can find “My Name Is Sheba” the album, and the podcast, wherever you listen. We suggest starting with episode one, and following along.
This chapter of My Name Is Sheba was written, recorded, and produced by me, Monroe Jones. The series is based on music from the album, My Name Is Sheba, by Kandace Springs, and can be found at Spotify, Apple, or wherever you stream music. Other original music in this episode is by Jason Donnelly, Humans Win, Neil Cross, Bzur, Jon Presstone, Media Music Group, Gushito, and Tencher Music, all of whom have royalty free music available at Storyblocks.
