Live Loud: Amplifying Awareness of Mental and Substance Use Health
On September 10, 2026, Matthew Perry House and Make Music Matter brought Live Loud to Toronto’s Massey Hall for a powerful night of music, connection, and community.
The night featured an incredible lineup of Canadian artists, including The Strumbellas, Tim Hicks, Aysanabee, Bif Naked, Fefe Dobson, Crown Lands, The Washboard Union, Julian Taylor, Maestro Fresh Wes, Michie Mee, Aaron Solowoniuk, Menno Versteeg, Sekou Lumumba, Todd Morse, and Cone McCaslin & Dave Baksh, with host Lauren Ash.
Together, artists, advocates, and audiences came together to challenge stigma and spark more open conversations around mental and substance use health.
Live Loud was a reminder that when we come together, we can make some serious noise for change. Proceeds support programs that help people build stability, connection, and hope.
