Béton Armé

Béton Armé is a punk/oi! band founded in 2018. Having become a fixture on the global punk
scene, the band stands out for its original music, with driving rhythms and haunting choruses,
as well as its universally celebrated live performances. Since the band's formation, Béton Armé
has produced a self-titled demo on the LSC records label in 2018, a debut EP entitled "Au bord
du gouffre" on Primator Crew (France) in 2020, a split 45 with Buffalo band Violent Way, jointly
produced by Primator Crew records and Contra Records (Germany) in 2021, and an EP entitled
Second souffle released by Primator Crew (France) and Roachleg Records (New York, USA).
Their new full length album “Renaissance” was released in July 2025 on La Vida es un Mus
Discos.
The band's numerous live performances have attracted the attention of the punk sphere
around the world. In addition to performances in Quebec and Ontario, the band played a series
of concerts in Detroit, Milwaukee and Chicago in fall 2019. They also hit the stage on the U.S.
West Coast in the summer of 2021, when they took part in the Lie Detector festival in Los
Angeles and performed in two other concerts in Long Beach, California. During the same
summer, they also went to Vancouver to play at the Have a Good Laugh festival. They also
played a number of concerts in New York (4), Philadelphia (5) and other cities in the
northeastern U.S., including Buffalo, Boston and Pittsburgh, during a tour with French band
Squelette in summer 2022.
More recently, the band toured Europe on a 14-show European tour. This series of concerts
took them to several cities in France, Belgium, England and Germany. Highlights of the tour
included performances at the latest edition of Static Shock Weekend, in London (England), and
Bal des Vauriens, in Vitry-sur-Seine (France).
Following a 3 date mini tour in Florida in January, the band also participated in a 10-show tour
the US West Coast in March 2024, playing in front live audiences from Los Angeles to Seattle.
They also played in Spain in August 2024 for the Beach, Beer and Chaos festival in the Barcelona
suburb of Badalona. In September of the same year, the band embarked on a tour opening for
Soft Kill. The 14-concert tour took them to the following cities: Portland, Reno, San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Santa Ana, Phoenix, Albuquerque, Denver, Omaha, Kansas City, Chicago,
Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Brooklyn.
Banking on the momentum this tour has created, Béton Armé continued touring in 2025.
Starting with a 15-date tour on the east coast of the United States with Poison Ruïn, followed
by a performance au the Los Angeles Punk Invasion festival, the bands recently returned to
Europe in July, performing in France, Germany, Austria, The Nederlands, Belgium, Switzerland,
