when Montreal’s and performed a classic house basement set in the Plateau amongst other talented artists ⭐️

brought the Riot grrrl angst & love, through the fog and sweat of the crowd face to face to them. Definitely gave some good grounds for noise complaints, the audience went crazy.

opened with their jazz infused sound, their phenomenal singer and musicians catching glimpses of each other playing, a whole band attentive to each instrument and feeling in the room.

💟‼️ More than ever, we have to protect Montreal’s music scene and build community.

Go see your local artists gigs, it’ll be way better than whatever far away stadium spot ticket master can offer.

Avec tout ce qui se passe dans l'actualité, c'est difficile de rester positif, de trouver un sens à tout ça. Le 6 décembre 1989 marque la date de la tuerie anti féministe de polytechnique. Un homme armé s'en est pris à des femmes qui étudiaient dans un programme dit plus masculin. Ces femmes ont déconstruit et brisé des barrières sociologiques, peut-être même malgré elles, afin de s'épanouir. Mais aussi pour braver le chemin pour un monde plus équitable, plus égal. Le simple souhait de vouloir exercer un métier qu'elles aimaient leur a coûté la vie.
Il y a 35 ans, un homme armé, qui sentait ses privilèges menacés, a tué 14 femmes.

Il y a 35 ans, et pourtant en 2024, on note la montée du masculinisme et l'anti féministe. C'est aussi pour ça, qu'il ne faut pas oublier.
En l'honneur de ces 14 femmes, ne répétons pas l'histoire.

Geneviève Bergeron (21 ans), Hélène Colgan (23 ans), Nathalie Croteau (23 ans), Barbara Daigneault (22 ans), Anne-Marie Edward (21 ans), Maud Haviernick (29 ans), Barbara Klucznik-Widajewicz (31 ans), Maryse Laganière (25 ans), Maryse Leclair (23 ans), Anne-Marie Lemay (22 ans), Sonia Pelletier (28 ans), Michèle Richard (21 ans), Annie St-Arneault (23 ans), Annie Turcotte (20 ans).

Ne jamais oublier. 🤍

Crachat ( .band ) et leur musique époustouflante ont laissé le public sans air pendant le lancement de leur album « Fille Poupée » le 18 octobre.
La scène de l’Escogriffe a vibré fort avec leurs paroles et leurs riffs effrénés. Je n’ai pas pu repousser ma forte envie de danser pendant plusieurs de leurs chansons.
Ce trio de rockeuses est un MUST SEE si vous passez à Québec. Leur energie contagieuse et paroles vous laisseront rassasiés de punk rock.

What an amazing event we got to be a part of last weekend! It was such an honour to be able to work with to help bring their vision of this concert to the stage. We’ve curated the rest of the lineup together and then they got these bands so hyped about this and the energy and chemistry they developed following that, was so beautiful to see!

And there was only one thing missing now…and it was you! The crowd. And you showed up!!! You sold out the venue, you brought your pyjamas, your plush toys, and your happy vibes and you made this evening such an amazing one!

Thank you so much for that! And of course thanks to who opened the evening with such a powerful set of soulful tunes, who made her live debut right like total queen (and dare we say a star is born??? Because yeah we just said it!!!), .our.sleep who slayed so hard people couldn’t stop dancing and singing! .sainte_catherine for once again being so nice to us., and to for making a gorgeous poster that brought a face to the concept of the show.

Now time to work on the Youth Attack 3…we’ll see you there!

’s last show ever in Montreal was everything we could’ve hoped for. Loaded with fierceness, uplifting messages and a strong desire to take a stand against the patriarchy. The energy of the band was magnificent and the connection they made with a packed venue of intersectional misfits was absolutely terrific. Let us know what you thought of the show!

A little over a week ago, punk rock legends played their farewell shows in Montreal and there’s one person that was on the stage performing with the band, but doesn’t get enough spotlight, so we wanted to give her a shoutout.

Did you know that Karina Denike music has been playing with Nofx since 2015? She’s been mostly playing live, adding real talent to the band (hahahaha jk) with her amazing voice (you gotta see her kill it on Lori Meyers!) and on keys. She also brings tons of badassery, killer dance moves and the best smile!

Did you know she has also released over 30 albums, as a solo artist, with various bands or as a collaborator? Her other bands includes Dance Hall Crashers, The Cottontails, Mr. Lonesome & The Bluebelles and many, many more.

We could honestly spend another 1000 words to describe all the amazing work she did musically, but we’ll let you dig and find out by yourself (isn’t the song you’re hearing right now amazing?)(sorry you can only hear it on our insta post but it’s her outstanding cover of “Biggest lie”)

So if you ever plan on checking out Nofx final tour, make sure you wave back at her!

“Les Insoumises” is french to describe women who refuse to submit.

This blog is a place to promote women and non-binary artists from the punk/hardcore scene, as well as the folk, rock n’ roll, psychobilly, power pop, grunge, and indie scenes.

Through interviews, discussions and art, we believe that empowering female musicians is crucial to gender equality, in a scene that is mostly male dominated.
