Blonde Redhead will be performing in Montreal on October 16th, 2010, for a concert at the Metropolis.

Formed in New York city in 1993 by a Japanese lady and a pair of Italian brothers raised in Montreal, Blonde Redhead released 7 studio albums in a genre that sounded somewhat like Sonic Youth at the beginning of their career, but progressively moved away from that sound.

Expect a new Blonde Redhead album, entitled Penny Sparkle, to be launched on September 13th, 2010.

The band was part of the Ottawa Bluesfest programming last July, but didn't come to Montreal.
