Vulgaires Machins

Vulgaires Machins plays Théâtre Beanfield in Montréal on March 14, 2026, at 2490 Rue Notre-Dame Ouest, H3J 1N5, Canada. Formed in Granby around singer-guitarist Guillaume Beauregard and guitarist-singer Marie-Ève Roy, the band shaped a melodic punk sound sung in French, where social critique, political concerns and more intimate notes meet. Their songs lean on a direct, alternative-tinged rock approach, carried by the dialogue between two voices and a rhythm section that has shifted over time without changing the core identity.

From early independent stages in Québec to solid footing in francophone punk venues and festivals, Vulgaires Machins has moved forward release after release. Compter les corps (2006) sharpened their engaged tone, Requiem pour les sourds (2010) pushed contrasts between catchy hooks and darker themes, and Disruption (2022) marked a return after a quieter spell. On tour in Canada and across francophone Europe, the group often shares bills with other punk outfits and sometimes revisits its catalogue in more stripped-down forms, keeping a collective writing spirit and a clear punk anchoring.
