Parisian Orgy

Calgary, AB

Originally launched as a solo project in 2015, Parisian Orgy has since blossomed into an eight-piece supergroup with a flair for chaos. Powered by synths, their post‑punk antics lean hard into humour, especially onstage. Members also moonlight in Uncanny Valley, Sunglaciers, and Sub // Cell, making the band a slapstick collision of Calgary’s finest art-punk jesters.

Dial Up

 Two members of Snõõper stand outdoors at night in heavy artificial fog, surrounded by large speaker‑like boxes and a traffic light. One person in sunglasses and a blue‑and‑white long‑sleeve shirt stands upright, while the other, wearing a pink‑and‑white top, bends forward near the traffic light. Bright flash lighting creates a stark, surreal scene against the dark background.
