"Montreal’s funky, freaky, dance-punk supergroup are so instantly loveable it’s frightening. Infectious art-pop jaunts packaged in gurgling synth growl, scratchy guitar bounce and ice-cool sing-along hooks. Major crush FFO: le Tigre, B-52’s, ESG, Sink Ya Teeth, Gauche."

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
La Sécurité (Montréal/Tiohtià:ke) is a collective whose art punk is equal parts: jumpy beats, off-kilter arrangements, and minimalistic melodic hooks. After years of writing earworms for the pleasure of beautiful weirdos, all the while strutting their style on tour with their many different projects (Choses Sauvages, Laurence-Anne, Silver Dapple, etc.), the motley bunch now meanders the fringes of punk, new wave and krautrock. Since coming together, the five-piece has been invited to perform at Reeperbahn, SXSW, Sled Island and FME, also sharing the stage with the likes of Automatic, Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp and Annie-Claude Deschênes (Duchess Says). The band recently offered Stay Safe! (June 16th, 2023 via Mothland), a first full-length that is manic, yet surprisingly laid-back, and should no doubt strike a chord with fans of Le Tigre, Automatic, Wet Leg, Devo, E.S.G. or The B-52’s.
