No Rest For Progress Collective

About Me

This collective was born from the need to organize the progressive rock community in Southern Ontario . We first put the word out in Toronto and surrounding area, but we have had such a strong response from other towns and cities in Canada, that we know this site will eventually extend out to all parts of Canada. Its through this collective we hope to unite bands and fans of progressive rock together to build a scene and develop the genre again. This new breed of progressive rock is seeing alternative, experimental, grunge, hard rock and other styles influencing the more traditional sound of progressive rock.Bands in this collective organize live shows together in different cities, and help each other to promote their music to new listeners in any way they can- sharing resources, techincal know-how ,industry contact etc etc, and exposing their own fanbase to each others' to help build a strong fanbase.If you are a band such as this, please get in touch to join the community. We are looking for bands who want to get involved in promoting not just themselves, but this community. Its a co operative, so be prepared to share!If you are a fan of progressive music, or a fan of new music in general, then please check out the bands on this page and show your support through coming out to shows and buying cds and merch. All the bands on this site are 100% independent and its only through a solid fan base that we can continue to raise funds to put out new CDs and promote shows.To you fans - we say thanks for your continued support!
