The City of Brantford is inviting local musicians to submit their original songs for consideration for the 2026-2027 Trail Mix program. Artists who are selected for the program will be compensated $50 per song.
Requirements
Submissions will be received online until Friday, March 27, 2026, at 4:30 p.m.
Trail Mix is a program that merges local music with Brantford’s trail system. Trail users can look for the signs posted on the kilometre markers along a 10km stretch of the trail between Hardy Road and River Road/Dike Trail intersection, located behind notable tourism destinations in Brantford, including: Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant, Waterworks Park, Earl Haig Family Fun Park, and Brant’s Crossing.
There are a total of ten playlists and ten unique QR codes along the trail. Each playlist has three songs and is approximately 10-12 minutes long, which allows the trail user to continue discovering local music during the duration of their hike. Since the program’s launch in 2022, songs featured on the Trail Mix playlist have been streamed thousands of times by residents and visitors visiting the trails.
