- Acoustic Nights Montreal is a series of bi-monthly music shows, staged in various venues in Montreal, aiming to promote local Montreal musicians, with emphasis on singer-songwriters. The concept of Acoustic Nights was first created by Melina Soochan. The first three such events were organized in association with Artists Alliance Productions and Global NTT. Subsequent events have been organized and produced solely by Soochan. These events have had fairly good coverage in the local English media, including radio interviews on K103 and CJAD, podcasts on Midnight Poutine, and articles in newspapers like The Suburban. Each acoustic night event usually features 5-6 acts, either solo artists or small groups, who perform mostly original material, in an acoustic setting, i.e. no drums, no tracks, no distorted guitar. Some percussion is allowed. A special event in the series was the Acoustic Nights Montreal Teen Songwriting Competition 2011, which aims to become an annual event, to discover and promote young talent. The winners are offered opportunities to perform with a professional band, among other interesting prizes (recording session, professional video, professional website and EPK, etc.). The promotional posters and flyers for these events have been designed with an eye for instant recognition of both the event and the artists who participate. (en)
