HOW WE GOT STARTED
The Prophets of Music Society was founded by Barclay Hunter in 2015, following the tragic and untimely passing of Joshua Hunter, a member of the Calgary band Zackariah and the Prophets.
Barclay, together with his wife Kelly and daughter Michaela, witnessed how the power of music inspired in Joshua a sense of dedication, hard work, commitment and creativity that enriched his life and relationships.
Music was not only a powerful force in Joshua’s life. It was, and continues to be, a positive tool for healing and remembering him.
We continue to celebrate the legacy of Joshua Hunter by investing in emerging artists and local communities, and by honouring the power of music, which had such a profound impact on his life.
This is the POWER OF MUSIC.
WHERE WE ARE NOW
The Prophets of Music are dedicated volunteers with industry experience whose lives have been empowered by music.
The Prophets of Music Society is first and foremost a people-centered organization. Everything we do happens thanks to a set of motivated volunteers who generously donate their time and expertise to make a difference in our communities.
Our organization consists of music industry professionals — artists, producers, sound techs, entertainment lawyers, event planners, and creatives — who share a passion for original music and an even deeper passion to pay it forward.
