Biography

The community itself began as a 4600 square foot Mile End loft space called Lab Synthèse,[2] and the label was created in order to promote and cultivate the bands associated with the space.[3] The label defines itself as a community of multimedia artists and musicians that subsists through a DIY ethic, friendship, and collaboration.[4] It has also been described as the vessel for an artistic movement where punk ethos and pop music collide.[5][6] Arbutus is run primarily by Bronwyn Ford, Taylor Smith, Mason Windels and Sebastian Cowan.[7][8][9]
