The Manic Boys & Girls Club is a Toronto alt pop/rock duo consisting of siblings Bela and Fernando Ferreira. Raised strict catholics, children of immigrant parents, sent away to live in rural Portugal with their grandmother (who had previously been a catholic nun); The Manic Boys and Girls Club is more than a band. It is an escape from the submissive existence that was the siblings' reality, an escape from the disposable music packaged for the masses, and an escape for any misfit looking to join the club. With stories to tell, and voices demanding attention, The MBG Club crossed paths with award-winning producer Gavin Brown (Glorious Sons, Billy Talent, Metric) one late night in Toronto. “My sis and I play music, you gotta hear our stuff” was how this relationship and EP were born. This EP is a collection of five songs recounting the two loners' experience touring in a van, relationships and bad habits. Blending lush synthesizers with overdriven guitars, The MBG Club successfully take you from an indie dance party to the feeling of an arena filled with an ocean of followers; but most importantly, away from reality for the duration of this debut EP. Now with the next chapter of songs already complete, just under 150K online streams, over 85K YouTube views, multiple international press features, radio promotion in place, PR, and a self-booked tour of the United States for early 2024, The Manic Boys And Girls Club see no downtime in the near future.

Hamilton's Samantha "Meave" Pearson is a remarkable 26-year-old singer-songwriter who possesses undeniable talent. Meave's journey took an unexpected turn during her regular busking sessions in the bustling streets of Niagara Falls. While sitting on a stoop outside the building where the third season of Canada's Got Talent was being recorded, Meave's captivating voice caught the attention of passing producers on their lunch break, who instantly recognized her immense potential. Invited for an impromptu audition by Howie Mandel himself, this set her on an extraordinary path where she secured a coveted spot in the show's grand finale, mesmerizing over 500,000 viewers with her exceptional performance and earning the title of Grand-Finalist (fourth position) and a notable "you're a star" from Howie Mandel. Embracing the attention generated by the show, Meave embarked on a journey as an independent artist. With unwavering passion and dedication, she has poured her heart and soul into crafting her own original songs. She presently has over ten captivating compositions recorded, each reflecting her genre-agnostic approach to music.
