Consequence is heading up north and over the border for the 2023 M for Montreal MARATHON festival. The annual gathering brings together independent and emerging artists from across Canada (and a few international locations!) to fill venues throughout the city. We’ll be taking over the beautiful La Sala Rossa music hall on Saturday, November 18th to present a four-act bill spotlighting the range of talent coming out of our northern neighbors.
Headlining the ticket will be rising Sub Pop signees Cartel Madras, the sisterly duo pioneering what they dub “goonda rap,” an explosive blend of underground trap and house music with a queer punk aesthetic. Then there’s alt-pop singer-songwriter dee holt, who dropped her i’ll be there EP earlier this year.
We’ll also welcome another duo to the stage, as the Juno-winning, Polaris Prize-longlisted, Cirque du Soleil-composing Milk & Bone will bring their electropop stylings to the showcase. Finally, Quebecois neo-soul artist Virginie B rounds out the lineup.
With M for Montreal running November 15th-18th, the Consequence showcase promises to be an amazing, eclectic way to close out the week. Tickets are now available to the show here; you can also snag a four-day Festival pass for only $100 Canadian (about $74 USD) here, granting you access to all 34 MARATHON shows featuring 91 artists across 16 venues.
