meet the founder & Kevin.
Having spent 9 years at Winnipeg, Manitoba’s historic live music venue The West End Cultural Centre, as well as being a touring artist herself, Kerri Stephens is well versed in the music industry. At the WECC, she made her way through every role at the venue, garnering experience and expertise in community outreach, sponsorships, fundraising & grant writing, marketing & social media to programming and artistic directorship.
During the pandemic, Kerri created Lost Cat Artists to work with and manage various artists. This led to artist development and acting as a mentor through Manitoba Music’s grant writing incubation program. She also serves as the head of the Manitoba chapter of Women In Music Canada, which through programming, community building and online resources attempt to strengthen the social-economic balance of the music industry.
Lost Cat Artists currently works with The Secret Beach, Leaf Rapids, Petunia & The Vipers, JP Hoe and Gabi Ocejo.
