I'm a big fan of electronic music (progressive, deep, tech, house, afro, techno, melodic) please suggest me some bars or clubs I must visit that play these genres regularly. I already know the most popular ones like CODA, NOMAD, NOIR, wiggle, but I'm looking to find some lesser known spots or underground scenes even on weekdays like secret society..

What's up Toronto, I'm looking to go to a fun and rock show on new years and need some recos

Will see a dancy DJ too just want to find a fun place

Hi everyone,

I made a Spotify playlist specifically for supporting local and independent artists & bands who based in and around the Toronto area. I've been curating the playlist for the past year or so and in the process of updating it with some new songs. I'm open to checking out any song recommendations you might have, especially from new and smaller artists. If you are also an artist yourself or a part of a band, feel free to mention it, as I would love to connect with you too. I am open to including most genres and styles of music in the playlist, as long as it isn't too explicit.

If you're interested in checking out and supporting the playlist here's a link:

We are looking for an experienced drummer, bassist, keys/samples and lead guitar player for an Emo/Alt-Rock/Grunge band. For fans of: Brand New, The Wonder Years, Touche Amore, Balance & Composure and Title Fight. Our new demos and some songs are readily available for those interested. You must have your own gear and be willing to commit to practicing once a week. Please DM me if you have any questions.

Hey, I’m a writer/director based in Toronto. Would any artists here be interested in working on music videos together?

About me: I define myself as a storyteller. I used to work as a screenwriter in my home country, and I have credits in feature films and TV series. Since moving to Toronto, I have also started directing. I am working on several short films and looking to expand my directing portfolio.

I like indie/alt-pop, dream pop, and electronic. Not very good at defining music genre, but you get the vibe. I also dance a lot, mainly hip-hop; I especially enjoy Afro and dance hall.

Coming from a narrative background, my strength is telling a story through the music video.
If you just want something that looks good, a cinematographer would be sufficient; I can also hook you up with one if you need one.

We can work together to apply for funding and make something with a budget, or we can also play around and just be creative on our own.

Shoot me a dm if you are interested.

Hey Everyone, we're POLAROIDS, a three piece Alt/Grunge band from Toronto. We released our demo a couple of weeks ago after a show at the Horseshoe Tavern.

Looking forward to 2025, we're looking to book more shows, and we've been in contact with a few more promoters in the GTA/Ontario and are looking for other bands to fill out bills.

Here's a link to the demo:

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hey Friends! I’m doing a new thing called Spin Class, don’t worry there’s no physical activity involved.

I’m hosting a bi-monthly (maybe monthly) listening party at Danu Social House where 2 local acts will be featured. We will play their latest album front to back and have a short chat discussing their work.

We will build on each event by asking for more and more local artists to bring their music and ideas to the community.

No cover, but bring your thirst, appetite and love of love of local music.

If you want to sign up to be featured on a Spin Class, slip into my DMs @SpinClassLocal for more details.

The first Spin Class will be January 12, 2025.

Let’s grow the local music scene together!

Are the balcony seats and the floor area connected? And if they are connected can I go down there somehow?? I'm going to a concert there soon and I could only find balcony tickets, even though I'd much prefer to listen at the floor area. Thanks.

Come join us this Sunday for a Jovial evening of mathrock at the Burdock! Get your tickets here: https://burdockbrewery.com/products/inlet-with-aunest?variant=41357305348183

Hey everyone! I’m a 20 year old guitarist currently studying music at Humber College in Etobicoke. I’m looking to start a band with originals and covers. Some influences include gnr, Alice in chains, Pantera, Aerosmith, return to dust, sound garden, skid row. Looking to write some heavy and groove oriented riff rock

Hi all! I just wanted to see if anyone was interested in buying two tickets for the August 22, 2025 show in Toronto, section 116, row 32, seats 8 and 9! <3 I'm posting this message around different subreddits to hopefully find someone who genuinely loves their music, not just looking to scalp

The concert's sold out now, but I got an extra pair during the pre-sale and I'm currently reselling them on Ticketmaster, but they add on fees to my listing price so basically no matter what, the buyer would pay almost 60 extra dollars. Honestly, I'd love if the tickets to go to another big fan and the tickets in that area are over $1,000 now, which totally sucks. I'm a uni student and don't want to take advantage of the opportunity, so if anyone's interested, lmk!! :)

Hey I’m a 22 year old girl, I’m just going to put myself out there! I love music, I love to sing, I constantly fantasize about doing gigs around the city and doing covers and maybe writing my own songs. If there’s any new bands in Toronto looking for a vocalist or backing vocals dm me and I’ll send you my email. I love yatch rock, classic rock, math rock like BCNR, peach pit, the strokes, cage the elephant, led zeppelin, bob dylan, smashing pumpkins, nirvana, fontaines dc, arctic monkeys, bread, big theif, neutral milk hotel, television, the cure, Joan Baez, and anything funk, and punk, grunge, Lots of other genres, okay to work with all men, but preferably just peers ages 20-26 ish!
