Play it Loud! How Toronto Got Soul - Sneak Preview Screening

From the late 1960s to the early 1970s, the Caribbean, Jamaican and reggae music scene in Toronto was almost unrivaled in North America in terms of quality and performers. Jay Douglas, lead singer of The Cougars and one of the biggest and brightest talents of that time, is the subject of a fantastic new documentary entitled Play It Loud! - How Toronto Got Soul. The documentary, directed by Graeme Mathieson,produced by Andrew Munger (Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson and The Band), and Executive Produced by Clement Virgo (Brother, The Wire.)
