Since 1989 Bryant has owned and operated B. Musique productions/studio, an intimate, boutique studio, located in a 110+ year-old former school-house in west-downtown Toronto. B. Musique is geared primarily towards the recording and creation of new, original music; for artists, film, television, and other media. Over the last 26 years, Bryant has co-written and recorded thousands of compositions in numerous styles, genres, and ensembles and for numerous applications. His musical abilities are vast, varied, and expansive. Recently, Bryant has been instrumental in the development of a new music co-operative (Evmc – evolutionary music co-operative) to help invigorate Toronto’s original music scene. He and his partners envision a 21st century Motown.
Toronto is on the world map for new music. Bryant and his expanding network of arts and industry professionals are excited about the future of the music and arts scene here. Towards this goal, Bryant and violin virtuoso tom hamilton have planted the seeds for a new organization called ‘artscity Toronto’ to showcase and live-stream great original Toronto based performers.

Interviewees will include government officials, venue owners, musicians, producers, investors, and other stakeholders.
