Sean Blackman has been honored with many Detroit Music Awards, has launched and directed World Music Festivals and worked as creative director of entertainment for corporate events for Red Bull, Chrysler and the grand opening of the McNamara Terminal at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport – one of the nation's most state-of-the-art terminals. As an established world-music musician, Blackman continues to compose and produce new material that links different genres of music with dance and theatrical performance.

Bringing performers of different ethnicities together for multi-cultural and multi-media, "In Transit" is a collaborative platform created by Sean Blackman where performers from around the world come together to create and produce original music concerts, recordings and educational lectures on world music. As Sean says,"Creating these multi-ethnic ensembles weaves a common thread through musical history that has influenced one another over time, together it's a modern-hybrid of old world sounds... (it) raises global awareness of human similarities and brings us all closer together."
