    For those coming to the event for the first time, it’s not just another city-based multi-venue festival but a total immersion in the culture and nightlife of downtown Montréal.

    On the new U.S. Girls album Scratch It, Meg Remy dials down the politics to pick through inner turmoil and history against a backdrop of dusty, soulful numbers. But it doesn’t mean she’s not still thinking ahead, as she tells Sam Franzini. The women of 2015’s Half Free (her first for 4AD) were waiting, wondering, and lonely, while 2018’s In a Poem Unlimited and 2020’s Heavy Light seethed with stories of domestic abuse, environmental pollution, and the lunacy of capitalism.
