We’re passionate about helping bands find their creative voice. Founded in 2022, QR THE BAND Music Association is a non-for-profit organization that aims to help artists thrive in a hyper-competitive environment using an innovative model to disrupt music industry standards. We’re here to make your life easier. Register in QR THE BAND's Artist Directory for free (www.qrtheband.ca) and consider applying for a chance to receive one song professionally recorded at no cost to the artist/band. The free-to-use Artist Directory is a platform that assists musicians in earning a decent living. The Artist Directory hosts artists' electronic press kits (EPKs) so that it is easier for music industry professionals such as managers, booking agents, venues, promoters, journalists, and community members to access your work, book you for shows, tip you through your page, highlight your accomplishments in the media and more. In addition, through an array of exciting music studios throughout Kingston and surrounding area, QR THE BAND helps successful applicants receive free audio and video studio recording time guided by seasoned professionals. Each year, these select artists will showcase their music at the Give Me a Break Album Series at Kingston Grand Theatre.

Join us for our first annual event on December 15th 2022! Support local artists, witness emerging and established musical talent and enjoy the tunes these artists put their heart into.

NOTE TO ALL AUDIENCE MEMBERS: The event will be video recorded, live, as part of our Music Documentary Initiative featuring the local artists. All audience members will be in the recording and, by attending, agree to being filmed for the duration of the event.
