👋 Hello!

We are a branch of the University of Toronto Student Anime & Manga Association (UTSAMA) based in the St. George Campus. Our club focuses on making music from anime, video games, and J-pop through live concerts and online recording projects. The LMC is a student-led club and we welcome players of all skill-levels.

History

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away, UTSAMA was called UTAMA, and the UTAMA LMC existed. It was an audition-based rock band? But it kind of died during COVID-19. In 2023, Stone, Sean, and Alexis were cool and decided to revive the LMC into its current form today.

Our club now aims to be a big space both in Toronto and online for people to find like-minded musicians, make friends, form rock bands or mini-orchestral ensembles and play music from anime, video games, J-Pop, etc., either through performing at concerts or producing project recordings.

Concerts

The LMC typically holds live concerts twice a year near the end of the University of Toronto’s fall and winter semesters, where we showcase music from large ensembles, small ensembles, and recording projects. Live attendance costs money, but recordings of our previous concerts are freely available on our Youtube channel.

Below is an archive of past concert setlists, posters, videos, and pictures.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is LMC only for University of Toronto students?

Though we’re mostly comprised of students from UofT, students from any campus and any university (worldwide? just Toronto?) is fine, but you’ll have to be able to reach St. George Campus to participate in weekly rehearsals and other live events. Otherwise, remote recordings.
