The "AME" project: An innovative pilot project supported by the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec
Are you looking to create a unique and welcoming atmosphere in your establishment while actively supporting local musicians? Do you want fair payment for artists who contribute to the musical atmosphere of your venue? Then let us introduce you to our innovative pilot project, designed to promote the creation of jobs for musicians in establishments and facilitate the deployment of a fair payment tool.
Background: Background music plays a crucial role in the development of musicians and for the audience who appreciate live music. Whether it is restaurants, cafes, hotels, shopping malls or other establishments, well-chosen music can enhance the overall experience of customers and keep them coming back. However, many talented musicians struggle to find opportunities to perform live and to be fairly compensated for their art.
Project Objectives: Our pilot project has two main objectives:
1. Promote job creation for musicians for background music: We seek to offer regular work opportunities in different establishments. The project aims to directly support the profession of musician by giving artists the opportunity to perform while being properly paid and in accordance with the regulations of the Guild of Musicians of Quebec. This approach aims to create a positive synergy between the artist, the venue and the public.
2. Deployment of a fair payment tool: To ensure fair compensation for musicians, we have implemented a transparent and automated payment system. Thanks to an intuitive application, establishments will be able to easily manage musicians' bookings, track their attendance, and pay them according to their performance. This will ensure fair compensation for the musical talent provided, while simplifying the administrative process for establishment managers.
How the Project Works:
-
Recruitment of musicians: We have a network of musicians interested in performance opportunities for background music in different venues.
-
Selection of partner establishments: We collaborate with establishments wishing to improve their musical atmosphere and support the local music scene.
-
Payment Tool Installation: We support participating establishments with a user-friendly application to manage musician bookings and associated payments.
-
Creating a unique atmosphere: Musicians perform regularly in establishments, creating a unique and engaging atmosphere for customers.
-
Feedback and improvements: We take into account feedback from musicians and partner establishments to continually improve the pilot project.
Benefits for musicians:
- Access to regular, paid service opportunities.
- Increased visibility and the ability to expand their audience.
- Support and recognition of their artistic talent.
Benefits for institutions and organizations:
- Improved musical atmosphere and optimized customer experience.
- Commitment to the local artistic community.
- Simplified booking and payment process.
Conclusion: Our innovative pilot project aims to foster job creation for musicians while providing establishments with a practical tool to manage their musical performances. By combining ambient music and responsible payment, we hope to contribute to strengthening the music scene in Quebec while providing memorable experiences to customers of participating establishments. Witness the magic of live music while supporting local artists through this exciting project!
