Hosting the The Toronto Star's music series FB Live

The Toronto Star produces a sponsored series with Mill Street Brewery called Newsroom Concert Series, to spotlight Canadian bands on the rise. Hosted by Ben Rayner, the series invites fans to The Beer Hall to watch acts likes the Sheepdogs, Metric, Francesco Yates and k-os, among others. 

The social team began producing Facebook Live videos in the series' second season to give a behind the scenes looks at the set-up, interview fans who came out and do a pre-interview with the band.

I hosted two of these live videos, one with Tuns and the other with White Lung
