TORONTO – The Canadian Music Café is honoured to announce the esteemed group of music supervisors from the US and the UK who will participate in its seventh annual edition, taking place September 14-15, 2015 at the Gladstone Hotel (1214 Queen West) in Toronto during the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). Accredited filmmakers, producers, and all industry professionals attending the Festival can gain access to the Café with their TIFF badge. For more information visit Canadian Music Café.

Canadian musicians participating at this year’s two-day event will have the opportunity to showcase their synch-friendly music to key international music supervisors and filmed media decision makers. The Canadian Music Café is a springboard for up-and-coming Canadian talent to show off their diverse catalogues and is open to industry professionals to facilitate song placements in TV, film, advertising and video games.

“We are very excited to welcome these top notch Supervisors to the Café and to Toronto, many of whom are visiting for the first time,” said Michael Perlmutter of instinct entertainment, producer and curator of the Café and, himself, a Music Supervisor. “It’s an eclectic crew of music lovers and they have all expressed great excitement about the Café and soon-to-be-discovered new, Canadian music.”

“The Café is an incredible platform to shine a light on emerging Canadian music talent during TIFF,” said Tracy McKnight, Music Supervisor (Selma, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Expendables). Championing home grown artists to a broad and diverse international audience creates endless possibilities and opportunities – and I’m looking forward to great time, too.”
