PROFILE:
Metrotalent is an agency whose expertise lies in the Montreal (MTL) "urban" music scene, but has grown to represent any and all-city talent. This fresh DJ Booking/Artist Management/Event Production agency sources out artists within the underground community, and recruits those who have talent oozing out of their fingertips. When casting for their clients various DJs, Musicians, Professional Dancers and other Performers; they can recognize talent before it explodes, and they know how to produce the vibe needed for those who experience it. Their uniquely produced events have become legendary, and their relentless and dynamic work ethic has propelled them to represent International Artists on the International Stage.
Kamilya and Sharon, both born from musicians themselves, have been inspired by their city's rich music and entertainment history, and aspire to push the boundaries of its' modern industry's growth. Sharon is an original participant from the early MTL House music scene in the days of notorious clubs: Pipeline, Business, Crisco, and Royale. As co-founder of NOIZE Record Shop (1996-2003, R.I.P.), Sharon had been immersed in all of Montreal's underground music scenes, where she naturally found herself booking and representing DJs, starting specifically with Drum n' Bass DJ/Producer SPINAL (Metaphor Recordings, CAN/FR).
Kamilya, a B-Girl, started her professional dance career with SOLID STATE Breakdance Collective (CAN), and hooked-up with Sharon while promoting and negotiating store sponsorship details for Kamilya's weekly HIP HOP/FUNK clubnight: ROCK DEEP. (This night became the reputable meeting ground for some of the world's best street dancers.)
This meeting of the minds proved to be the junction of where ARTISTRY and COMMERCE could blossom into what is now Metrotalent.
