It started in 2008, in a basement party venue that ended too rarely in Hochelaga. And if it’s not like that anymore, it’s important that it was. It’s a matter of contingency, of resilience perhaps, of attribution of a part of each person’s life. It’s been 10 years. A lot of things have changed. There’s still a girl and four boys, except they’re not all the same. The nights end better, because they end. And there’s reason for that, a confluence of relentlessness, passion, and condemnation, perhaps too, which means that, through clogged sinks and DIY accomplishments, things always happen.

The band has released three albums and an EP, with a rock approaching garage to affiliate with 90s melodies, succinct but not garroché, thoughtful but urgent, thoughtful in urgency. An exercise in tensions and essences that developed through Une belle table (Independent, 2010), a split EP with The Peelies (Planet Of The Tapes, 2011), “Le grain d’or” (Independent / Sainte Cécile, 2014 – awarded at GAMIQ 2014 as Rock Album of the Year) and then, here we are, Daniel (Blow The Fuse, 2018) – all this pretty good all the time supported by the good Jean-Michel Coutu (PyPy, I.D.A.L.G., Corridor, Crabe) on production and mixing. The stages covered range from Osheaga to CMJ Music Marathon and Iceland Airwaves.
