The Young Performers Club has produced, directed and managed over fifty independent music events that showcase young talent since its inception. The annual showcase Grand Finale event is the largest event managed. and enters its 11th year at the Boston Hard Rock Cafe. Many top award winners and finale finalists have achieved success in the industry, including Megan Trainor (Grammy winner/nominee), Sasha Sloan (top billboard chart performer), Chad Gervis (formerly lead singer in the House on Cliff/currently lead singer in Nashville band King Calaway), Amanda McCarthy (2019 New England Music Awards singer songwriter of the year), Lauren Weintraub (signed in 2019 with Warner Brothers Recording Artists Brandy Clark and Big Machine Music) and Dennis Taylor (international soul performer in the UK and Germany).
In 2017 we debuted our first Northeast tour, the All You Got Tour, for young performers. The tour, the first ever 22 and under music tour of its kind, based on its unique mix of the arts, rocked throughout the Northeast from June through December. In June 2020 we will start the 2020 tour season. The tour is co-founded by the Young Performers Club and Next Generation Concerts, two entities that have a combined 35 years experience supporting the young performer market by providing performance and career enhancing opportunities.
