The Besnard Lakes is a Canadian indie rock band hailing from Montreal, Quebec. Formed in 2003, the band has gained recognition for their unique sound and captivating performances. Drawing inspiration from various genres, their music combines elements of indie rock, shoegaze, and psychedelic rock.
With a discography that spans over several albums, The Besnard Lakes have established themselves as a prominent force in the Canadian music scene. Their distinct sound and thought-provoking lyrics have garnered them a dedicated fan base.
Influenced by artists such as *Handsome Furs*, *Plants and Animals*, and *Wolf Parade*, The Besnard Lakes have carved out their own niche within the indie rock genre.

Following the triumphant, epic Are the Last of the Great Thunderstorm Warnings album released in early 2021, The Besnard Lakes release an accompanying EP – The Besnard Lakes are the Prayers for the Death of Fame. The majority of the music found on …Death of Fame were recorded in some form at the same time as their 2021 double album, but have since been either re-recorded, edited, extrapolated, and straight-up psyched out. Going even further into their drone rock influences (think Pure Phase-era Spiritualized and the mellower moments White Hills’ catalogue) the band emerge as a progressive and experimental group not afraid to take things out beyond the 15 minute mark (Silver Shadows). A band who are getting close to their 20 year mark continue to explore, surprise and excite us – it’s a trip, and we’re all on board.
