Voices for Lebanon Fundraiser Show
Join us live for the Voices for Lebanon Fundraiser Show – music, hope, and support all in one night!
Join Us for the Voices for Lebanon Fundraiser Show!
Come together in support of Lebanon at this fundraising music show at DROM Taberna on Sunday, July 12. It’ll be a night filled with powerful voices, inspiring performances, and supportive community.
We’re a group of Toronto-based artists and musicians who want to use our voices and platform for a good cause. During the ongoing war on Lebanon, children and their families have been greatly impacted. We’ve felt heartbroken to see them facing immense hardships, displacement, and limited access to basic care.
To do our part to help, we’re offering a night of performances by four incredible artists/bands – Zico, Janice & AJ, Mir Kashif Iqbal, and Sam-r – along with amazing raffle prizes and vendors, and donating all proceeds from ticket and raffle sales to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund’s (PCRF) Lebanon Urgent Relief program.
This fund provides children and families in Lebanon with lifesaving services, like medical care, food, hygiene kits, and other essential supplies. Together, let’s raise enough to meet our donation goal of $3,000 for this worthwhile cause!
Don’t miss out on the chance to connect, contribute, and make a difference while enjoying an unforgettable experience with community.
Can't make it to the show, but still want to support?

Link Strummer @ Breaking Sound
Joining Link Strummer for Breaking Sound!
We showcase the hottest emerging artists & bands in premium locations around the city. #BreakingSoundCanada
FEAT: CHAI, Jacqueline Madsen, Link Strummer + Isabella Couto!
Get To Know The Artists:
CHAI
a Toronto-based singer-songwriter known for crafting raw, emotionally charged music with an early-2000s pop-rock edge. Her recent releases, recorded in New York City with producer David Schoenwetter, blend nostalgia with modern storytelling and heartfelt lyricism, CHAI creates music that is both emotionally honest and undeniably catchy.
Jacqueline Madsen
Growing up in small-town rural Ontario alongside her seven older siblings, Jacqueline Madsen always craved independence and wanted to find a unique path to set her apart from her closely knit family; when she found her musical calling, this longing was fulfilled. Jacqueline’s music lingers with a sentiment of self-discovery and love, and a take on societal standards that provokes comfortable discomfort
Link Strummer
performs like it’s a spectacle and writes like it’s a confession. Drawing inspiration from decades of pop and R&B history, he blends retro influence with modern storytelling — turning obsession, heartbreak, and self-reflection into songs from the perspective of someone who knows exactly what the bad decision is and does it anyway. Based in Toronto, he is set to release Unforgettable — a concept album so specific it feels uncomfortably familiar.
Isabella Couto
a Toronto-based singer-songwriter whose heartfelt pop sound blends soulful vocals with honest storytelling. Her music draws from experiences of heartbreak, growth, and self-reflection, creating songs that are both personal and relatable. Her debut single, “Knight in Shining Armour,” explores the pain of broken trust, while her latest release, “Stuck in the Rain,” reflects the feeling of being stuck while life moves forward around you.

After that, we'll welcome some of Toronto's finest musicians to interpret Nash's music, as part of the vinyl release show for Nash the Slash - Covered, a tribute recording featuring weirdo musicians from all over the world. March 13th is the vinyl release show, supported by We Are Busy Bodies record label, and produced by Friendly Rich Marsella.

Nash the Slash Rises Again! uncovers the origin story of the sinister, masked Canadian electronic music innovator who took his name from the killer butler in a 1927 Laurel and Hardy silent film. A classically trained violinist and multi-instrumentalist, Nash fused prog rock, punk, classic rock, and psychedelia with techno and industrial - long before those genres even had names. The new film Nash the Slash Rises Again! unwinds the bandages of a ground-breaking, mad musical scientist whose career decomposed before the world caught up

Join us for Wavelength’s final show of 2025, a tribute to electro-acoustic sound techniques and the ever-present influence of times past.
From the musicians behind JUNO-nominated band The Wooden Sky and Canada’s Greatest party band Dwayne Gretzky, comes Toronto’s own MOONRiiVR. Gavin Gardiner and “Champagne” James Robertson craft a sonic world that reflects every moment in time. With analog tape, slide guitars, wonky string synths, and nimble percussion, the term “Buddy Holly meets Krautrock” strangely comes to mind.
These Toronto music scene staples will be joined on the bill by genre-blurring Canadian singer-songwriter Sam Tudor. Both an individual and a project, Sam Tudor offers acoustic guitars colliding with Eno-inspired beats, distorted synths and jazz sensibilities. Similarly ambient and exploratory as heard on their fantastic 2024 album Shift Circuit, Kamra opens the evening with gossamer-like vocals to make each listener’s spirit turn crimson.
