On stage, The CHMST leads a full live band — and the energy reflects it. There’s the sophistication of a jazz ensemble, the pulse of contemporary hip-hop, and something in between that’s entirely his own. He’s become a recognizable name on Toronto’s live music circuit, performing at venues and festivals across the city and steadily building a reputation as one of the scene’s most compelling live acts.
His influences run through the lineage of live-band hip-hop and neo-soul — you can hear it — but the result is something current and distinctly his. Whether it’s a cultural event, an elevated festival slot, or an intimate venue, The CHMST delivers the kind of performance people talk about after.
