Indie Montreal is very excited to present the second edition of its three-show concert series entitled Insolitudes 2. Thanks to the financial support from Musicaction and Canadian Heritage, 9 artists will take the stage. The hybrid concerts will take place on March 1st, 2nd and 3rd, 2022 at the Balcon in Montreal and will be broadcast live on Lepointdevente.com. Tickets will be available on Lepointdevente.com for $11,30 in advance and $13,91 at the door (plus taxes and fees).
Following a successful first edition in August 2021 that included two sold-out nights, Insolitudes will be back for a second edition this spring. The concept is simple: three nights, three shows and three crazy musical worlds. In order to create evenings that are as distinct as they are special, Indie Montreal will collaborate with Pestacle to design three different stage designs. The custom set and light designs will offer a unique atmosphere each evening. Huis Clos will direct the video broadcast, which will allow the public to view the series live from the comfort of their own homes.
In an effort to combat the loneliness caused by the pandemic and to celebrate the diversity of the Canadian music scene, Indie Montréal invites music lovers to gather at Le Balcon (or virtually) to discover and support a panoply of local artists. The series will kick off with a jazz night featuring stunning performances by The Liquor Store, Franky Selector and Carl Mayotte (March 1). The series will continue with a pop night featuring Rayannah, Titelaine and MoKa (March 2). It will conclude with the electronic night and the brilliant performances of Millimetrik, Luis Clavis and Anachnid (March 3).
Space will be very limited for the live performances. Hurry up and get your tickets here before it’s too late!
