ABOUT CHART
The magazine began as an eight-page photocopied newsletter covering the local music scene. It quickly expanded into a full-color glossy international magazine committed to fostering and promoting the Canadian music scene and its growth, while maintaining its editorial independence and integrity. In contrast to other North American magazines which focus mainly on established acts, CHART follows the buzz - breaking the up-and-coming hot new bands such as Avril Lavigne, Barenaked Ladies, Our Lady Peace, Sum 41, Matthew Good and many more. It is committed to providing an element of celebrity and excitement in Canada similar to the scene fostered in the U.K. by magazines such as Select and Q.
CHART's audience is mostly 15-35, the people who are the early adopters, fans of all things new and serious about music. They accept all genres although they mainly concentrate on rock, alternative and anything today's younger audience is listening to. Classical and jazz, for example, will rarely be covered.
