Finding Core has attained many shows over the years, including many popular venues such as world renowned Harpos Concert Theater, in Detroit Michigan, as well as Jeff Healey's in Toronto. Their hard work has landed them on the same bill with popular bands like I Mother Earth, Great White, Quiet Riot, Seether, Sloan, The Trews, Finger Eleven, Rides Again, Default, High Holy Days, Ronnie James Dio, Ian Thornley, Anthrax, Fireball Ministry, Faber Drive and more!

In the fall of 2007, Finding Core one again acquired National attention, as participants in the Great Canadian Band Challenge. Climbing from literally hundreds of contestants across Canada, the band, through hard work, determination and the support of their community and beyond, rose to the prestigious Top 5 placing, allowing them to perform live at The Hard Rock Cafe, downtown Toronto. The event was broadcast worldwide to over 10,000 viewers via webcast, and recorded for a reality television series to air in the future.
