choses sauvages

In September 2018, Choses Sauvages released their namesake dance-punk debut, produced by Emmanuel Ethier (Corridor, P’tit Belliveau, Chocolat, Pierre Lapointe). Very well received by the Quebec press, the album was nominated in the Album of the Year – Alternative category at the 2019 ADISQ Gala and crowned Indie-Rock Album of the Year at the GAMIQ Gala, all while topping the province’s independent radio charts. The same year, the band also sold out a major Montreal venue, the 1000-cap Club Soda.

Still driven by a rigorous, meticulous approach, the Montreal quintet has matured without abandoning its rebellious side. Their latest album, Choses Sauvages II, is closer to the electronic and nu-disco influences of L’Impératrice and producer Lindstrøm, while continuing their fascinating journey down the funk trail, inspired by the Bowies and Bee Gees of this world. An album that will earn them a second win in the Indie-Rock Album category at GAMIQ, this time for the 2022 edition.
