A living room concert series to pay artists in need
MusicTogether supports working Ontario musicians during the COVID-19 crisis with direct funding, new opportunities for fan discovery, and eCommerce tools. $300,000 has been committed thanks to the generosity of the music community funders listed below and matching funds from OntarioLive.
MusicTogether is run by volunteers. 100% of our funds go straight to working musicians affected by the COVID-19 crisis.
MusicTogether.ca was founded by Raja Khanna, Gary Slaight, Jeffrey Remedios, Oliver Johnson, Arts & Crafts and Daniel Debow (partners in the Root Down Studio).
