GIVING BACK
Kootenay Garage Band:
In our little village of Kaslo, BC, professional musician Jay Danley saw a need for a youth music program. So in 2021, Jay launched the Kootenay Garage Band, where Kaslo and area's youth are taught an instrument and how to play in a band.
Propel wanted to support this initiative and help foster the next generation of rural BC musicians by donating recording time. Twice a year, a new Garage Band group comes into the studio and records their hard work in our professional setting, providing the groups with a rare opportunity in their early musical careers.
