By this point in time, it has become clear that not everything about the pandemic was a bad thing. We’ve seen some amazing art projects to come out of the weeks that we were all forced into isolation. In the case of the city of Toronto, the newly formed band The Pawn Shop was born out of this era.

The Pawn Shop is made up of musicians who are known both locally and internationally - Phil Tessis and Jaime Rosenberg of the Canadian band After Funk, along with Rob Christian (Larnell Lewis Band), and Alan Zemaitis.
