Musitechnic reached out to some of the movers and shakers in the Montreal music scene and asked them to give us their 5 current fav Montreal music-makers. Montreal has long been a driving force in the music industry by pumping out bands that have taken the world by storm.
Montreal bands have been moulded by the unique cultural environment and offer a refreshing alternative to the standard smorgasbord with something for all tastes.
les Deuxluxes
Due to the relatively low cost of living, reasonable rents and industry infrastructure it is possible to start a project here in Montreal and get it out on the road throughout Canada, the US and Europe.
Here is your chance to find some pretty cool new Montreal sounds. Do yourself a favour and buy a song/album or two from these lists.
Support your local music scene because if you don’t who will?
