Welcoming Back The Slaight Music Wellness Room At BreakOut West

Industry events can create a high stress situation for artists and industry, requiring high levels of focus, social engagement and public image, BreakOut West launched, in 2017, Canada’s first industry event Wellness Room. The BreakOut West Wellness Room was designed as a sanctuary for artists and industry to use as needed to get away or shut down for a short time and regroup for the needs of a successful weekend.

“The Slaight Family has a long history of supporting health initiatives across the country and we are proud to partner with BreakOut and offer the Slaight Music Wellness Room to this year’s conference.”  Derrick Ross, President, Slaight Music

With the support of Slaight Music the Wellness Room will be returning and growing in 2019, equipped with resources and engaging care providers at intervals throughout the week, including:
