Portraitures is the solo project of the Sudbury born, now Toronto based songwriter Mark Scherzinger. They released their debut EP 'Worse for Wear' in June 2023 which features a variety of collaborators including performances and co-writing from Melanie St. Pierre of Casper Skulls. Portraitures' sound features blends of jazz and experimental ambiance dancing in delicate harmony, a harmonic pool in which we drift peacefully, lost in swirling radiant arrangements. The music is a love letter to a place, to a home, but a letter born of a deep and abiding affection and love for community and peers and for the people who have joined with Scherzinger to breathe life into these songs.

Diskarte is a Toronto-based band founded in 2017 by Jon Catanus. They adhere to the philosophy and definition of the Tagalog word “diskarte,” sometimes improvising sets of groovy, soulful and intense music with a keen focus on the distinct voice and style of each individual musician. Stretching from virtuosic uptempo shredding to the most simple, sincerely delivered melody, there is nothing like the way these musicians strike the perfect balance between playfulness and wholehearted commitment to the music, each other, and the audience. The band consists of Jon Catanus (drums), Caleb Klager (bass), Victor Xu (piano), and Bjorn Kriel (vibraphone).
