“The show in Barrie was fabulous. Everything about the event was great- it started on time, actually even had a pre show performance, the music was non stop, had a well-timed intermission, incredible energy throughout, wide variety of music and the performers were so talented.”
“I was amazed watching the performers alternate seamlessly from one instrument to another and from leads to background vocals.
Thanks for bringing this show to town! I am confident it created a memorable summer night for all the individuals and families in attendance.”
“This program gives aspiring artists the opportunity to learn from and connect with real industry professionals. While part of the program, artists belong to a community where everyone is committed to finding success in the music industry. And the inspiration, collaboration, and friendship that comes with that is invaluable!”
