Sudbury Performance Group celebrates over three years of continuous live music
Hosting live events became a challenge during the pandemic, but despite that, Sudbury Performance Group continued to host music concerts, and employ local musicians, throughout.
From hosting livestreams to in-person and back again following whatever public restrictions they were faced with, Mannisto said SPG kept moving forward, and what began as one livestream show per week has evolved to now hosting three live concerts per week. “We’ve provided live music opportunities all across the city and we’ve been doing shows that focus on female musical talent, we’ve have done shows highlighting Francophone artists, we’ve really been stretching our wings over the past while with our music events,” he said.
“Knowing there’s regular work for us after the gruelling pandemic is helpful, not only financially, but our mental health is so much better,” she said. “I am a mom now so it’s a comfort knowing I don’t have to give up my artist career since Sudbury has so many more paid opportunities thanks to initiatives like these from SPG.”
This means they can also support the greater communities in Sudbury, giving them an opportunity to gather, enjoy a night out, as well as be entertained by local professional and international music artists.
