Madking Ludwig's sound comes straight out of their own Bermuda Triangle, emanating from somewhere between desert rock, metal and prog rock. Originating from Montreal, they have been creating their style of music since 1997, blending vocal harmonies and woodwind instruments with the crushing mix of fuzzed-out heavy rock. The band, consisting of Stéphane Bellemare (Lumberjack), Leïla Jolin-Dahel (replacing Sophie Bourassa as of "Seven Stairways"), Raphaël Corbeil (Karmadoza), Patrick Falardeau and Stéphane Vigeant (Groovy Aardvark, Floating Widget, Karmadoza), has been averaging about two shows a year, turning each live performance almost into an event! .

Ludwig von 88 is a French punk rock group, that was very active on the alternative rock scene during the 80's and 90's. Their music is full of humour despite touching very sensitive topics like most of the wars that happened in the late 80s and 90s, drugs, corrupt French politicians, road accidents... They managed to make a generation of young French laugh about every sad thing that was going on around them. The Group started sometime during 1983, their first album "Houlala" was released in 1986. They haven't released anything since 1999 but the group haven't officially split. .
