Jo Ryder, the Toronto duo, knows that Toronto music venues have gone through some trying times. The video for their song, “Bliss and Nothing Less” features them traveling from venue to venue around the city. The band has this to say.

“The Bliss and Nothing Less video acts as a love letter to the music spaces that have supported live music throughout the years and have had to close their doors (temporarily or otherwise) because of COVID. It’s a nostalgic longing and a realization of the changes that are happening in the city of Toronto.”
