Montreal’s Montag (a.k.a. Antoine Bédard) charts a new direction on his third album Going Places. Overhauling his delicate touch with vintage instruments, and transforming his sound into explosions of incandescent electronic pop, Montag fleshes out his lush sophisticated songs with guest appearances from musical friends Anthony Gonzales (M83), Owen Pallet (Final Fantasy), Amy Millan (Stars), Au Revoir Simone, Victoria Legrand (Beach House) and Ghislain Poirier.
Montag and multi-disciplinary artist Andy Dixon (also known for his electronic music project Secret Mommy) bring you something new: a video teaser for the upcoming release of Montag’s GOING PLACES, due June 5 via Carpark Records. Album excerpts mix with field sounds and 2D photo-animation. From the park to the bedroom, from the tub to the dance floor, Montag’s music is going everywhere and you’ll want to come along too.
