About me: Smokin' Entertainment has spent the last decade learning the tools of the trade and digging through the trenches of Canada's sometimes "less than profitable" music scene. We have experience with MTV Canada, BC's top three production companies, including House of Blues and have held shows at some amazing venues, including Richard's on Richards in Vancouver, BC.
We do the following...
1) We produce shows that exhibit the fine talent that comes our way. Everything from metal to folk, blues to jazz, country to hip-hop. Though we will be honest, our hearts lie in the bed of blues, metal and rock n' roll!
2) We poster and promote for events and help get the word out for your show, bringing more exposure to your events at a price that beats all the others. These events include concerts, fundraisers, town events, sporting events... pretty much anything you have, we'll do it, with the exception of religious events!
3) We organize fundraisers and help bring awareness to your cause.
4) We put an extra touch on events to make them ones that people will remember and talk about for a long time ... see Heavy Metal Meltdown!
5) We book shows for bands from all over North America, in all of North America.
6) We lead bands in the right direction for things we can not directly help with and help spread the word about our country's great artists.
7) We book entertainment for bars and clubs and increase business for those venues suffering from low-business.
Who I'd like to meet: Musicians and lovers of music, supporters of good things and people with their hearts in the right place.
