Artist Profile: The Beaches

The Beaches

The Starmaker domestic and international touring grants make the impossible possible; make the unattainable attainable; and have given our band, The Beaches, a virtual safety net to perform the proverbial big top in Canada, the UK, and the United States.

To be able to travel, grow our live audience and develop our fan base in a myriad of markets — both here and abroad — is something you can’t put a dollar figure on. Performing at Riot Fest in Chicago with the help of Starmaker allowed us to be seen by other tastemaker bands and gain better paying opening slots in the US market, and that’s just one example. Starmaker’s impact on our group is not just positive for our bottom line but has assisted in our exponential growth in terms of our career development.

At the end of a long tour, being on a steadier financial footing allows us to concentrate on our work, our art, and our creativity rather than where our rent is going to come from.

We gratefully acknowledge the support of Starmaker in all aspects of our career trajectory, from marketing support to domestic and international tour funding. We know that without Starmaker we would not be on the same path. Thanks for your continued support.
