Karneef live in Montreal

Experience Karneef live on September 15th

Karneef is scheduled to perform at L’Escogriffe Bar Spectacle in Montreal on September 15, 2026. Karneef’s musical style blends elements of post-punk, darkwave, and coldwave, often featuring driving basslines, atmospheric synthesizers, and introspective lyrical content. The project, primarily the work of musician Karim Charif, has released several albums and EPs since its inception in the early 2010s, gaining recognition within the European and North American underground music scenes.

L’Escogriffe Bar Spectacle is a long-standing venue in Montreal’s Plateau Mont-Royal neighborhood. Established in 1999, it's known for hosting a diverse range of independent artists, particularly those involved in alternative music genres like punk, experimental rock, and electronic music. The venue intentionally maintains a raw and intimate atmosphere; it's characterized by its relatively small capacity – approximately 80-100 people – and unpretentious aesthetic. L'Escogriffe frequently features local Montreal acts alongside touring musicians from Canada and internationally.
