At the crossroads of psychedelic and indie rock, Montreal band Corridor takes over the dome for an unforgettable performance, accompanied by 360° visuals. Rock? In a dome? Yes, indeed—this is a concert like few others at the SAT… you won’t want to miss it!
Get ready for a fully immersive show, where enveloping 360° visuals blend with Corridor’s singular sound—somewhere between psych, post-punk, krautrock, jangle-pop, and noise rock. A show as daring as the band’s journey, marked by the 2019 release of their album Junior on the prestigious Sub Pop label (the very first Francophone signing for this iconic Seattle label!), and as delightful as their latest LP, Mimi. The best of what indie rock has to offer!
Olivier Robillard Laveaux will be doing a rock-flavored DJ set, before and after Corridor’s performance.
360° immersive visuals by Alex Vlair.
The concert will be presented in front of an audience and broadcast live on ICI Musique. For the curious, a version with spatialized sound will later be available for catch-up on the Radio-Canada Ohdio platform.
Corridor is a Montreal-based band composed of Jonathan Robert (guitar and vocals), Dominic Berthiaume (bass and vocals), Julien Bakvis (drums), and Samuel Gougoux (additional percussion). Following the release of Junior in 2019, the latest album from Corridor, Mimi (2024), is a huge step forward for the band, whose members themselves have undergone the type of personal changes that accompany the passage of time. This fourth effort reflects a newfound and contemplative maturity, as Corridor is branching out more than ever with music that’s richly detailed, resulting in a record that feels like a fresh break for a band that’s already established themselves as forward thinkers.
Alex Vlair is a multidisciplinary 3D artist and VJ who creates work for advertising, installations, and events. He is interested in the boundary between the digital world and the real, working often with real-time content for events that bring people away from their screens and into social gatherings. He often works with music and musicians, not only exploring the relationship between sound and image, but also as a simple admiration for the power music has to draw people together. Alex Vlair’s VJ sets are performed using the 3D software Notch, allowing pre-constructed 3D scenes to be manipulated in real-time. Focusing on colorful psychedelic mantra-like patterns mixed with lo-fi digital glitches, his visuals could be described as esoteric cyber-punk.
