Milk & Bone is a Montreal-based duo consisting of Laurence Lafond-Beaulne and Camille Poliquin. Emerging in 2013, they quickly established a unique position in the Canadian indie landscape by blending the intimacy of singer-songwriter traditions with the sleek aesthetics of modern electropop.
Their sound identity is built on 'vocal twinning,' a technique where their similar timbres are layered to create a ghostly, harmonically rich lead. Career-wise, their 2015 debut 'Little Mourning' earned a Polaris Music Prize longlist nomination, signaling their critical arrival. They evolved toward a more cinematic and rhythmic sound on 2018's 'Deception Bay' and 2022's 'Chrysalism,' collaborating with producers like Gabriel Gagnon to refine their 'dark-pop' aesthetic. Culturally, they represent the sophisticated Montreal electronic scene, choosing to write in English to reach a global audience while maintaining a distinctively moody, North American indie sensibility. They are frequently cited alongside acts like Wet and Purity Ring for their ability to make electronic music feel deeply human and emotionally resonant.
