This performance will be presented on June 2nd (7pm), June 6th (4pm), and June 7th (3pm), all at Rockette Bar. In JUDITH, Sarah Chouinard-Poirier mobilizes, embodies, and gives voice to the figure of the living dead — this body that has been dehumanized and rendered monstrous — to expose the fear of the Other and denounce the narratives that govern the war on drugs. Drawing on references to popular culture and their own experience as an intervention and community worker, the artist delivers a multifaceted performance where zombies, cinema, humor, and theoretical underpinnings intersect in an embodied reflection on the hygienist, racist, and classist biopowers that govern substances and bodies.

You can always pay more on sight and get access to more. Basically pay as you use if the standard package isn’t enough for you. Bring the clothes you want to play around with or you can take/buy some thrifted pieces on sight :) 💞💫 excited to see you

Join us on Sunday, June 7th for another SAWA fundraiser for Lebanon at Espace Transmission, who graciously offered their space in support of the cause. You can expect music, bites, drinks, and a brand new market featuring many new exclusives, curated with so much care alongside artisans and partners we're incredibly grateful to work with. All proceeds will go toward urgent support initiatives in Lebanon helping on the ground. In line with our mission, a small portion will also support Palestinian initiatives and Indigenous communities. Tickets are a minimum $22 donation. Additional contributions are encouraged. https://www.instagram.com/p/DYKtmw_DuJu/

"the experimental session" est une soirée mensuelle d'exploration sonore entre trois musicien·ne·s de la scène montréalaise. Initiée par la multi-instrumentiste et compositrice Salomé Perli, ces soirées sont une occasion unique de mettre à l'honneur la musique improvisée et expérimentée au Quai Des Brumes, reconfiguré dans un cadre intime pour l'occasion. The experimental session is a monthly evening of sound exploration between three musicians from the montreal scene. Initiated by multi-instrumentalist and composer salomé perli, these evenings are a unique opportunity to showcase improvised and experimental music at quai des brumes, reconfigured in an intimate setting for the occasion. The Montréal-based Swedish vocalist and composer Erika Angell defies categorization. Across seventeen independently produced albums and innumerable collaborations, Angell has been a poetic and audacious force in genre-defying music. Her voice has been described as "a guiding presence" (Exclaim) that "splits the difference between the divine and demonic, skillfully unhinged" (Under The Radar) and "sits alongside the greatest indie female artists who are not afraid of anything" (Le Devoir). Relocating to Montréal in 2012, her career now spans two decades, characterized by a fearless pursuit of originality, an inexhaustible desire to traverse genres, and a dedication to artistic collaboration. Angell melds musical territories from classical, rock and jazz to electronic and avant-garde and she is known foremost for her unconventional artistry with the celebrated avant-rock band Thus Owls. Her debut solo album of unreleased material was completed and expressionist works.
