Three Sauf les Drones members Barbara (trombone), Christophe Rosset Balcer (drums), and Charlotte (violin) help form this 6-piece Montreal post-rock band.

These musicians create calm and delicate instrumental epics. Gentle, soft, but powerful in its essence, Sauf les drones' music incorporates a warmly piercing violin, an elaborate piano, an accordion, a beautiful harp, drums, bass, and a vibrating trombone. Their music is self-described as "experimental, dronistic and cinematic, while remaining uplifting, fragile and strong". Building landscapes, finding communities, using zines, immersing poetry, and performing with happiness, Sauf les drones explains the history of their work, past influences, and new directions.

Get real on:

• Rethinking scheduling, structure of practice, and recording sessions due to Covid-19

• Understanding the necessity for respect and communication to work as a healthy band.

• Montreal's music scene vs Toronto

• Playing in a church while its ceiling was falling

• Mixing spoken word, post-rock, and drill beats

• Making zines with other artists

• Redefining post-rock as a happy genre

• Details on their new album - which includes more detours, electronics, ambience, and experimental sounds. It will be longer than their previous albums: "Lieux anonymes" and "chercher le trouble",

• Their new album release show happening on May 25th

• Explication on previous albums that explore themes of community, how community is tied to landscapes, finding those communities in different places. and so much more!
