This episode features Tushar - a local Montreal barber, producer, and up and coming DJ. This week we discuss the intersection of each of these creative outlets - such as the parallels between curating "the vibe” for a customer at the barbershop and fostering a musical experience at the club. Tushar also discussed his artistic process during the pandemic and how he obtained inspiration despite the lack of daily life's normal stimulus.

| #04 — Cafe Crescendos: Isis Geraldo | 05 Apr 2021 | 00:35:13 | |
This week, we are joined by Isis Geraldo, a co-owner of the popular cafe and live music venue 'Resonance' in Montreal! In this episode, we discuss the intricacies of operating such a unique business model, which transitions from lattes and day-time studying to a space of music experimentation in the evening. Prior to the pandemic, Resonance held up to 60 shows each month (!) but the pandemic has obviously been a massive disruption - Isis explains how Resonance has adapted to this new condition. We also consider the challenges of balancing music accessibility for the public with adequate compensation for artists and the business.
