NO.19. Hosts Mexico & Puerto Rico relief charity event at Parlour.

Following a series of earthquakes and Hurricane Maria, which have left both Mexico City and Puerto Rico in a state of devastation, Canadian-based imprint No.19 is calling upon the music community to join efforts in providing relief to those affected. On Thursday, November 16, label Co-Founders Jonny Whiteof Art Department and Nitin will be joined by an army of Canadian talent including Kenny Glasgow, Carlo Lio and Teeloo’s Kitchen, all performing under the same roof for a meaningful night of music.

Hosted at Toronto’s intimate lounge, Parlour, the evening will also feature gourmet apps provided by Loco Fields Farm, prepared by the one and only Chef Devan Rajkumar (The Food Dudes / Bluebird / City TV). Attendees will also be able to enter in a chance to win an original art piece created at the event by local artist Duro the Third, as well as participate in a silent auction of one-of-a-kind art pieces. No.19 will have original vinyl, CDs, artwork and other label merchandise available for purchase. All proceeds from the event will go towards natural disaster relief for Mexico via Hector Murillo’s ‘Just Giving’ campaign and Puerto Rico via the Ricky Martin Foundation.

As capacity is limited, tickets will only be available for purchase at the door. Tickets will be sold for US$25.00, with proceeds going to charity. If you are unable to attend the event, but would still like to show your support, No.19 invites you to do so by donating through their Go Fund Me campaign here.
