Bon Enfant dazzles with glam-rock flair on new album Demande spéciale
Montreal art-rock quintet Bon Enfant is back with its third studio album Demande spéciale, out now via Duprince Records.
Produced by: Emmanuel Éthier
Following their acclaimed first two albums, Bon Enfant (2019) and Diorama (2021), the band has earned recognition in Quebec’s indie rock scene, with nominations and wins at the prestigious ADISQ Gala. This latest album continues their exploration of rock’s many subgenres, incorporating influences ranging from psych-pop and 70s disco to desert rock and Japanese city-pop.
Recorded by Samuel Gemme, Warren C. Spicer, and Guillaume Chiasson, mixed by the latter and produced by Emmanuel Éthier, Demande spéciale also sees contributions from Jean-Étienne Collin-Marcoux, Jérôme Dupuis-Cloutier and Naomie Delorimier. It’s an album that feels good and sounds resolutely like Bon Enfant.
With Demande spéciale, Bon Enfant once again proves its versatility, offering a fresh yet familiar sound that invites listeners to celebrate life’s joyful moments. The album is a triumphant continuation of the band’s musical journey, and a must-listen for fans of eclectic, artful rock.
