Triggerfinger

On December 5, 2026, La Maroquinerie in Paris hosts Triggerfinger, the Antwerp trio led by Ruben Block (vocals, guitar), Paul Van Bruystegem (bass) and Mario Goossens (drums). The band moves forward with a stage-ready rock — dense riffs and tight rhythms — drawing on two decades of material, from their self-titled 2004 debut to tracks from All This Dancin’ Around. On stage, Triggerfinger favor contrasts: slow buildups, abrupt breaks and a heavy groove, with a bluesy touch surfacing beneath the saturated guitars.

The set can blend classics, surprises and well-judged reinterpretations — their take on I Follow Rivers made an impression — propelled by a big sound and concentrated presence. Raspy vocals, a rumbling bass and precise drumming: the power-trio formula links restrained tension to outright releases, without frills. In Paris, Triggerfinger return to the essentials, close to the audience, for a concert that puts the band’s dynamics front and center and reminds you what makes the three-piece format so powerful.
