Francos de Montreal continues Thursday with a lineup mixing emerging talent and established acts across multiple venues and stages.
Adam El Mouna opens at Pub Brasseur de Montréal at 5 p.m. The singer appeared on La voix in 2023 and won recognition at the Festival international de la chanson de Granby. At 10:30 p.m., the same venue hosts P.L.L., a trio from Réunion blending dancehall and urban sounds into bass-heavy, rhythm-driven pop. P.L.L. promotes what they call "gommance"—a lifestyle centering good humour, confidence, and positivity.
At the Scène Loto-Québec at 8 p.m., Choses Sauvages takes the stage. The group launched Singles 2016-2026 in April, a collection of six singles spanning their first decade. Their 2025 album Choses Sauvages III concentrates on post-punk groovy sounds that more closely match their live energy. Later, at 11:59 p.m., they'll host the festival's after-party at Vino Disco in espace Le Central, offering free entry.
Erika Hagen also performs Thursday, delivering rough 1990s-inspired rock with forceful vocals.
All Pub Brasseur performances are free.
