Walk Off the Earth

Canadian band Walk Off the Earth returns to Paris for a series of concerts at Le Trianon. Expect an evening rich in energy and musical creativity.

Walk Off the Earth, originally from Burlington, Ontario, formed in 2006 and quickly distinguished themselves with their innovative approach to music. The band consists of Gianni Luminati, Sarah Blackwood, Joel Cassady, and Ryan Marshall. Their unique characteristic often lies in multiple members simultaneously playing a single instrument, or in the use of unusual instruments, creating a unique visual and sonic signature. It was this ingenuity that first captivated a wide audience via online videos, before propelling them onto the international stage.

Their musical style is an eclectic mix of pop, indie rock, and folk elements, characterised by complex vocal harmonies and inventive instrumental arrangements. The band has built a solid discography with albums such as « R.E.V.O.  » (2013), « Sing It All Away  » (2015), and « Here We Go!  » (2019). Among their emblematic tracks are audacious covers like their version of Gotye's « Somebody That I Used to Know  », which largely contributed to their notoriety, but also original compositions such as « Red Hands  » or « Rule The World  », which illustrate their ability to write catchy melodies and poetic lyrics.

Walk Off the Earth's stage reputation is well-established. Their concerts are true experiences where interaction with the audience is paramount. Performances are dynamic, often unpredictable, and highlight their instrumental virtuosity and cohesion as a group. Each member brings their touch, whether through singing, guitar, bass, drums, ukulele, or other instruments, often played unconventionally. It is this generosity and inventiveness that make every stage appearance memorable.

Their visit to Le Trianon, an emblematic venue in Montmartre, offers an opportunity to discover or rediscover the world of Walk Off the Earth in an intimate yet vibrant atmosphere. It's a chance to closely appreciate their musical talent and communicative energy, which transform every concert into a collective celebration of music and creativity. The Parisian audience will thus be able to share a unique moment with a band that constantly surprises with its originality and commitment.
