Chris Burns & His Going Concerns

Montreal, QC

Four decades of Montreal “racket‑roll” come roaring to life with this garage-born collective. As a member of bands like Terminal Sunglasses and Tha Retail Simps, Chris Burns has perfected his punk swagger and noisy improvisation. Now, His Going Concerns deliver burnzoid anthems right‑this‑minute with ferocious musicianship and unhinged joy. Sounds like a good time to us!
