No Bad Sound Studios' Performance (Friday, October 12)

NBS is an inclusive, safe space for young artists to grow their creative abilities and expand their knowledge and experience of studio recording. They take a hands-on, practical approach to teaching youth about music production, recording, mixing, performance and writing songs. Young artists of different ages, backgrounds and skillsets come together to develop projects revolving around music. Relationships and networking naturally evolve into music groups, collaborations and teams of likeminded young artists. Their purpose is to help develop confidence, creative thinking and transferable skills in life, through music and art. NBS Studio was developed in 2007 and remains one of the longest standing programs offered by the Maison des Jeunes Cotes-des-Neiges.

Time & Location: 6:15-7:00pm (Ed. Lobby)
