The autumn 2026 music season features a variety of notable live performances and album releases across France and Canada.

In France, English singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock is scheduled to perform a duo set at Trois Baudets in Paris on October 11.

In Canada, October marks a significant month for local album releases. Key upcoming projects include Gabriella Olivo’s debut album ‘Reflexiones’, which blends Latin influences with contemporary Quebec pop, and the third album from the Quebec-based rock group Élégie, titled ‘Le chaos et l’ordre’. Additionally, artist Étienne Dupré will release a double album under the name Duu, titled ‘Strobus / Banksiana’, featuring both electronic-rock and acoustic styles. The indie-rock group Institut is also set to release ‘Changer de paradis’ on October 9.
