About

Rougaroux is a five-piece post-punk band from the stolen lands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, otherwise known as Vancouver, BC.

A trans and Indigenous fronted post-punk experimental project, defying lines of genre and screaming into the void, willing a better world into existence through the power of friendship and chosen family.

The band

  • George FinleyVocals
  • Clay FinleyBass
  • Adam MelodyKeys, guitar
  • Connor ThiessenDrums

Additional guitar: Cam Thiessen

“As furious as it is vulnerable, as melodic as it is monstrous.”
