Our Story

LoudTO is an online music magazine based in Canada's largest city of Toronto (which we fondly call T.O.), devoted to music of all genres, with a specialized lean towards Rock, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. Established in February of 2023, founder Jay Broderick took his general interest photography website and focused his efforts towards concert photography, and concert reviews. After a successful year of growth in 2022, and a desire to create a place for music fans to come and get their music news, LoudTO was born. In addition to concert images and reviews, the premise has been expanded to include album reviews of releases from years gone by, and new recordings. It will also include music news, updates, interviews, future concert updates and previews and much, much more. These will include bands already on the circuit and future up and coming rockers that are ready to kick it into high gear. Stay tuned, as we aim to bring you the best there is to offer in the Greater Toronto Area and beyond.
