Rehearsal & pre-pro facility stocked with good vibes. Come here to listen, create, record, rehearse

Seeing a void in Toronto for an amazing multi-use rehearsal space, we partnered with Arts & Crafts, Slaight Music, Universal Music Canada and other passionate Toronto entrepreneurs to build it. We have a large, clean & comfortable space to play, think, create and bond. The versatile room features built-in trifusers to tune the room on the fly.

Recently, our very own Julien Laferrière was out west as the playback engineer for Canadian legends Marianas Trench for their Calgary Stampede show! 🎚🤩 Julien is a playback and monitor engineer and whenever you're at The Root Down you can always count on him to answer questions and help you tighten up your playback mixes!
🎤 It's so great to know that more live music is [hopefully] around the corner... 🥰 come on in and get back to rehearsing with us, we're glad to be filling The Root Down with music again 👋

Over the last few years we've had the honour of having BAD CHILD rehearse and work out of The Root Down fairly regularly. It's been so exciting to watch such an incredible artistic voice flourish and grow, and we're so thrilled that his debut full-length album "Free Trial" is out in just 3 days! Congrats BAD CHILD and everyone involved.. as you can see from this video, so much care and thought has gone into the release. You can preorder the vinyl (and CD) at badchildsound.com :) Don't sleep on this incredible talent!
