Experimental rock outfit Yoo Doo Right (Montréal, CA) wed noisy, melodic guitar parts, effects-laden synthesizer soundscapes, deep bass grooves and patented percussive furies into sprawling, cathartic musical pieces. In doing so, Justin Cober (guitar, synthesizers, bass, vocals) and John Talbot (drums, percussion) create a unique sound where “towering monoliths of roaring riffs crash against swarms of restless rhythms” (Pop Matters).

Since forming in 2016, they have released two full-lengths (Don’t Think You Can Escape Your Purpose, A Murmur, Boundless to the East, From the Heights of Our Pastureland), three EPs (Nobody Panicked and Everybody Got On, EP2, The Sacred Fuck EP), as well as a handful of collaborations, including a 7” split with Acid Mothers Temple and a improvised album entitled Yoo II avec Nolan Potter, teaming up with Population II and Nolan Potter. They have also toured in Canada, the United States, Europe, and the United Kingdom, performing notorious events such as SXSW, Levitation, and Amplifest,, also opening for the likes of DIIV, A Place to Bury Strangers, Wooden Shjips, and Kikagaku Moyo. Their latest opus, From the Heights of Our Pastureland (Long-listed for the 2025 Polaris Music Prize), is yet another solemn if defiant entry in Yoo Doo Right’s rich music catalogue, an honest and patient sonic poem about the destructive process of unbridled expansion in the name of "progress", the inevitable collapse and what it means to rebuild.
