Chârogne At MTelus

I'm still relatively new to this whole concert photography thing, so I'm not 100% if it is common to see a bass player wearing what appears to be a dog mask, complete with tail.  That's what you're in for, and a whole lot more, when you see a concert by local punk rockers Chârogne.  They were opening a punk rock extravaganza for Anti-Flag, Vulgaires Machins and Hugo Mudie (photos can be seen by following the links) back in November at the MTelus.  Self described as a feminist punk band made up of all women or people of diverse sexual backgrounds, Chârogne hits the stage with a strong message and a raw devil may care attitude that not only demands your attention, but grabs it and doesn't let go.  The first photograph was taken at f/3.2, 1/400sec, ISO 6400 at 24mm.  Here are several more photographs of their performance.

If you'd like to find out more about Chârogne and their music, you can do so by following the link to their Facebook page. They only have one album to their name, 2017's Mange-Moi, but it's full of songs such as Féminist frustrée, Usine a bébés and J'peux pas montrer mes siens that get their beliefs out for all to be known in a very loud manner.  They owned the stage that night and were one of my favourite new discoveries of 2022.  Hopefully I get to photograph them again.
