Band/artist history
Formed in Montreal, QC, in 2003, Tempete is a power trio with raw live energy, surprising tempo changes, proeminent bass and flirtations with Hardcore Punk, Jazz, Funk and Noise textures and satirical and poignant lyrics make their sound unique and accessible to a wide variety of music fans.

Have you performed in front of an audience?
We love to play live, we do a lot of shows, mainly in the Montreal area, but always enjoy opportunities to play outside of our home town.
Your musical influences
Mr. Bungle, Refused, Primus, NoMeansNo, Tool, Death, Fantômas, King Crimson, Dillinger Escape Plan, Mononc Serge, Rage Against The Machine, Beastie Boys, Tugnut, ourselves and soooo many others!
What equipment do you use?
We are very fond of old Acoustic amp heads from the 70s. We're using them for both guitar and bass. Bass cab is a Trace Eliot and guitar cab is an old Marshall JCM800 Lead.
Drum is currently a Pearl Masters MCX, cymbals are a mix of brand but that sounds good together.
