The most famous growlers choir in History. Composed solely of metal vocalists called “growlers”, Growlers Choir blends metal and experimental music in a way that is unique and groundbreaking. Hailing from Montreal, Canada, one of the world’s capital of metal music, the 13 metal vocalists ensemble was dreamt up by composer Pierre-Luc Senécal in 2016. What may have been a wild fantasy for many metalheads was finally brought to fruition in May 2019, when the band took the stage for their first public performance. Their first piece, the mythical “The Dayking”, has triggered a frenzy of ecstatic comments, calling it “masterfully arranged”, “mindblowing”, “a ritual of summoning demons from the other dimensions”, a descent “into literal unbridled chaos”. This success was in no small part due to the lead speaker’s of the piece, Fortner Anderson. Pioneer of the spoken word scene in Montreal, his reading of his text “The Dayking” has been described as dramatically poignant, visceral and riveting.

Since, Growlers Choir has dedicated itself to producing ambitious concerts, creating bewitching music and exploring vocal techniques. Fascinated by extreme metal as well as a variety of throat singing techniques, Growlers Choir showcases the sonic potential of the voice and demonstrates its extraordinary properties, both sensual and monstrous.
