As part of Second Summer Festival 2026, we caught up with rising Montreal post punk band Ribbon Skirt! Looking back on a year that saw their debut album Bite Down (2025) get shortlisted for the Polaris Prize and has taken them all around the world, the band reflect on their musical style, breaking the mould, singer Tashiina's strong lyrical themes of Indigenous life and taking Ribbon Skirt's music across the globe.

You'll hear three songs from their set, recorded at the Monarch Tavern.

1. Off Rez
2. Iceage
3. Lucky 8.
