  3. Freetime: The Besnard Lakes Bring Their Montreal Indie Rock to the Wadsworth Atheneum

    Montreal once seemed an unlikely location for an indie-rock revival. All that changed, of course, with the success of Arcade Fire&rsquo;s 2004 album Funeral, which merely hinted at the heights they&rsquo;d reach. (The Suburbs won the Grammy for Album of the Year in 2011.) Enter Stars, Islands, Plants and Animals, Wolf Parade, Sunset Rubdown and a gaggle of other bearded Canadians. Around 2003, Jace Lasek and Olga Goreas, a Montreal husband-and-wife duo, formed the Besnard Lakes (named after a location in North-Central Saskatchewan) and started recording atmospheric, proggy guitar-driven pop as barren and expansive as the Canadian steppe. They&rsquo;ve since released two full-length albums on Jagjaguwar, including The Besnard Lakes Are the Dark Horse (2007) and last year&rsquo;s suite The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night (2010). They&rsquo;ll play at the Wadsworth Atheneum on Oct. 8 with countrymen Malajube and Smoke Signals.
