Propulsion - Soulfest MTL 2026 - Cocktail bénéfice

On February 26, 2026, at Le Balcon in Montréal, The Brooks take the stage for a focused set of funk and soul. The Canadian collective centers its sound on tight grooves, warm analog tones and a rhythm section that favors the pocket over showmanship. Brass accents, vintage keyboards, elastic basslines and call-and-response vocals draw on 1970s funk, contemporary soul and a hint of jazz, with arrangements that keep the hooks up front and the backbeat locked in.

Onstage the band moves as a single unit: breaks are crisp, solos remain melodic, and the tempo breathes without losing momentum. The performance stays dancefloor-ready while allowing space for dynamics and nuance, balancing instrumental heft with vocal interplay. The Brooks thread deep cuts and newer material together with reworked influences, always grounded in timing, cohesion and feel. It’s a concert that highlights their collective craft and the live energy that has made them a reference point on Canada’s funk and soul scene.
