SEE THE LOCKS PARTY EVENT FOR YOURSELF ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL, CLICK HERE

This week your host Jacob Racco welcomes on two very influential individuals in Ottawa's entertainment scene in Filet & Simon, the co-creators of Locks which is an event that stems from their FMG collective. While they typically throw Hip-Hop and EDM shows, they have recently branched out into the sports scene by throwing the Lockdown Fundraiser Basketball Tournament, an event that raised funds for the Locks Cares Fund, a grant aimed at supporting immigrant BIPOC families in Ottawa.

We talk about why they felt the need to start this business to strengthen Ottawa's entertainment scene, as they've held shows for artists such as Night Lovell, Lil Mosey, Comethazine, Killy and more. In my opinion these two guys are exactly what the city of Ottawa needs to build up the culture, they're fun-hearted and smart business-minded individuals who know how to attract good vibes. Enjoy today's show, it's a good one, ALSO click here to watch video coverage of the Lockdown Fundraiser Basketball Tournament.
