ABSTRACT LIVE: Discover New Music and Toronto Talent

Find them before they blow up.

Nine artists. Six weeks of intensive development. One night to see what’s next before the rest of the city figures it out.

Abstract Learning’s Artist Development Program has spent the last six weeks working with nine of Toronto’s most promising rising artists, sharpening their performance, storytelling, sound, and industry readiness. Now they’re ready to show the room what they’ve built.

This is your early access.

Hosted by 11:11, Toronto singer, songwriter, and producer with a signature R&B/Trap sound and real reps in the game. He’s been part of the journey with these artists, bringing the kind of perspective you only get from building a sound, a brand, and a career on your own terms.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

What to expect:

∙ Live performances from 9 rising artists

∙ Genre-blending sounds across R&B, hip-hop, alt-pop, and experimental

∙ A curated room of creatives, industry tastemakers, and music lovers

∙ A celebration of growth, artistry, and community

The artists who sell out venues tomorrow are in rooms like this one tonight. Be in the room.
