Superfans

“I hope I die before I get old.”

Superfans was a Zoomers.ca web series I conceptualized & produced during my time as content editor with Moses Znaimer‘s ZoomerMedia.

Focusing on the “Zoomer”-friendly musical acts that would perform in Toronto, we profiled the 45+ “Superfans” who continued to support these aging performers.

The series was shot & edited by Steph Parrott. McLean Greaves was executive producer.

Above is my favourite episode — the Gordon Lightfoot Massey Hall concert where we encountered such Gord “Superfans” like Jeanne Beker, Andy Kim & Ron Sexsmith.

Past episodes include Robbie Robertson, Paul Simon & Judy Collins.
