28 singles, 15 studio albums, 10 eps, 7 compilations and 1 live album make up the of Montreal discography. Pretty impressive for an indie pop band out of Athens GA.
The band formed in 1996 by frontman Kevin Barnes, who has been the only constant member over the years.
Today of Montreal is a band of 6 and has seen 17 other members come through the pipeline.
Of Montreal is touring in support of their latest effort, White Is Relic/Irrealis Mood, released March 9.
Barnes tries to mix things up on this album with an 80s era style extended dance mix. Each of the 6 tracks clock in at over 5 minutes.
Of Montreal have played Pittsburgh on numerous occasions including at the Andy Warhol Musieum and William Pitt Union in 2005, Mattress Factory in 2006 with Black Moth Super Rainbow, the Ches-A-rena in 2010, Altar Bar in 2012 and Mr. Smalls in 2015.
They’ll be back in town March 25 for a show at Mr. Smalls Theatre with Mega Bog and Pittsburgh’s very own Delicious Pastries. Doors open at 7pm and the show begins at 8pm. You can get tickets for $20 HERE or win a pair from us.
