Multidisciplinarity is an integral part of the creative process of Annie-Claude Deschênes, who continues her perpetual personal quest of uniting music and performance art by bending thepre-established conventions of stage presence.
A key figure in the Montreal independent music scene for twenty years, she made her mark as a frontwoman, singer, musician, songwriter, performer, and visual artist with cult bands Duchess Says and PyPy—bands renowned for their electrifying performances as much as for their artistic sensibility. Annie-Claude’s exploratory approach to staging and sound design takes a new direction with the genesis of her solo project: the urgency and intensity that characterizes her work remains, but sheer aggression gives way to cool, dystopian disco vibes. Annie-Claude Deschênes explores and reinvents herself under her own name, driven by a constant need to create outside her comfort zone.
Inspired by minimal pop and the pioneers of electronic music, LES MANIÈRES DE TABLE, her first solo album released in 2024, is as danceable and melodic as it is disquieting—proposing to set the table differently by deconstructing the social codes of politeness imposed on us. In April 2025, she released “Main de Fer,” a single that showcases a new & unique direction in her artistic approach.
