Vulgaires Machins

With Contempler l’abîme, released in fall 2025, Vulgaires Machins return with a powerful new album that blends their trademark punk rock with new wave textures and symphonic arrangements recorded with the Budapest Symphony Orchestra. Known for their politically and socially engaged music, the band has been a key voice on the Québec scene since 1995, with acclaimed albums, sold‑out tours in Québec and Europe, and numerous awards. After a strong comeback with Disruption in 2022, praised by critics and nominated at the ADISQ Awards, the band continues to connect with a loyal and committed audience, returning to the road across Québec and Europe.

Opening act – Bad Bad Bird

Bad Bad Bird captivates with catchy pop melodies driven by punk rock energy and Madeleine’s sensitive voice. Her French lyrics, both naïve and striking, explore love with honesty. Elevated by Manu’s subtle experimental touches and Louis’s sharp drumming, her songs become irresistible sing‑along anthems. Blending 90s influences with modern pop and dance energy, the trio makes an instant impact. If you like Weezer or girl in red, this will be right up your alley.
