of Montreal

The American psychedelic and indie pop band Of Montreal is getting prepared to occupy the Babylon stage once again on Wednesday, May the 9th.

Of Montreal takes its name from the sad and platonic love story of the founder of the band as well as being a poet and performence artist Kevin Barnes, or with his alter ego, Georgie Fruit. The band is an important part of the record label and music collective Elephant Six, which is lead by bands like The Apples in Stereo, Neutral Milk Hotel and The Olivia Tremor Control with their rainbow-coloured music that includes psychedelic pop, electronic, funk, glam, krautrock, afrobeat and vaudeville. The band which is under a heavy influence of icons such as The Beatles and David Bowie, made their big debut with their 2007 album “Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?” and accepted as one of the best albums of the year. Of Montreal will make the 9th of May an unforgettable night for all with their sing-along choir style, impressive lyrics and live performence which passes with a carnaval spirit.
