Angine de Poitrine, Viral Quebec Duo, Clinches 2026 Polaris Music Prize
Quebec instrumental math-rockers Angine de Poitrine, who achieved viral internet superstardom in 2026, have won the prestigious Polaris Music Prize. The duo, formed in 2019, has seen a meteoric rise, including appearances on "Jools Holland"
Angine de Poitrine, the viral Quebec instrumental math-rockers, are on quite a run right now. The duo has existed since 2019, but they've become internet superstars during the 2026 calendar year. They've played Jools Holland and Fallon , and they've already inspired a tribute act across the planet. Just recently, Angine de Poitrine started playing big festivals, hitting Chicago's Riot Fest and Richmond's Iron Blossom last weekend. (I caught their set at Iron Blosson, and I might have more to say about it later.) On Tuesday night, Angine de Poitrine became the latest winners of Canada's prestigious Polaris Music Prize.
