MONTAIGNE IS GOING TO DIE

Pop royalty, twitcher, songwriter, activist, artist. Montaigne released their first album, Glorious Heights, in 2016 and won Breakthrough Artist in the ARIA awards that same year. Their third album, Making It! ‘explored relationships, death, the universe and the anxieties of modern life’ and their latest music - self-produced after liberating themselves from corporate management - goes deep into family trauma and survival. Montaigne has been open about both their creative practice and their mental health over the years - so what does this free-thinking, articulate maker have planned for their own Dream Funeral?
