Looking for Toronto-specific memorabilia

A series of short films are in the works that tell the story of Toronto's music scene. The people behind this are looking for pictures and memorabilia from the 90s and, currently, are eager to get their hands on anything about the former Ultrasound Show Bar.

It's actually much more than a series of short films... it's interactive and portable! In their own words:

"City Sonic is a new, multi-platform music series that delivers these stories straight into the hands of todayʼs music fans, wherever they are: online, on TV, and on their mobile phones.

Itʼs a backstage, all-access pass to 24 revealing short films featuring contemporary music stars such as K-OS, Broken Social Scene, Sarah Slean and more.

Each film tells the story of one musician and their shared history with a legendary Toronto music venue. City Sonic creates a new level of engagement with the city through location-based storytelling and a gaming component built around the new generation of mobile phones."
