Montreal psych band Chocolat touring this spring

chocolat

Montreal’s Chocolat may seem initially to be merely a better-than-most psych-garage band but are soon defying pigeonholing with every song. There are delicate harmonies, motorik krautrock rhythms, and proggy chord changes. If you haven’t checked out last year’s terrific Rencontrer Looloo you can listen to that below.

Chocolat are even better live and will be on tour with Bueno later this spring, including two NYC shows: Baby’s All Right on June 3 and Berlin on June 4. Tickets for the Baby’s show are on sale now and Berlin should be on sale soon (same ticket link).

The band are currently on their way to Europe for dates in France and Belgium. All dates are listed below.
