OUR COMMITMENT TO ARTISTS
There is no music industry without artists. That's why we prioritize their wellness. We anticipate needs and nothing surprises us because we've been there.
The definition of success for each artist is as individual as they are. "There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground” - Rumi. Our unique on-boarding discovery process forms the foundation for custom-designed career strategy, branding and marketing. We're big on consistency but also fast on our feet because we understand that artistic evolution is natural and expected.
Fearless Creative believes that stepping outside of our comfort zone is where true artistry shines the brightest - we dare artists to think expansively & intuitively because sometimes throwing spaghetti at the wall is the best way to reveal the magic sauce.
"if you feel safe in the area that you're working in … always go a little a bit out of your depth and when you don't feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you're just about in the right place to do something exciting" - David Bowie
As experienced vocal producers, we steadfastly support singer care including warm ups, quiet rest, focused time before & after shows, and honouring personal downtime (unless of course the Grammys call and then we'll wake you up in the middle of the night).
With decades of direct experience as artists and producers ourselves, the Fearless Creative team can offer an astute ear on a mix, interface with live tech support at soundcheck or throw together a chord chart for rehearsal.
Our downtown Toronto songwriting and production studio is utilized for co-writes, tracking, vocal production and mixing. We have an extensive talent bank of top shelf musicians, singers, vocal coaches and collaborators - and when a little drama is required, we'll get you a string quartet, horn section or choir. Multimedia projects are beloved and encouraged.
Fearless Creative's inclusion advocacy arm opens doors of opportunity for artists to participate in international song camps, showcases and discussion panels. Together we're building a kinder and fairer music industry.
