The Mole
Known for his love of sonic collage and musical noodling, Colin de la Plante aka The Mole boasts a long and colourful list of releases—for labels like Perlon, Ostgut Ton, Slices of Life, Haunt, Musique Risquée, New Kanada, Internasjonal, BLKRTZ and Wagon Repair, and most recently releasing on Circus Company, Maybe Tomorrow and Sound of Vast.
Seventies Hungarian funk, Youtube outsider artists, the dustiest of old Bollywood relics—all is fair game when it comes time for The Mole to pull either inspiration or wax for his house-heavy DJ sets and live shows. Low-key and loved by many, he possesses a steadfast commitment to keeping it groovy above all… “And weird!”
From Victoria to Montreal to Berlin and back again, you can catch The Mole on his CFUV 101.9 FM radio show “This Ain’t Berlin”. Having performed live as part of No Way Back at Wonderment 2023 and 2024, The Mole returns to the Johnson Street Bridge for a solo live set opening for longtime conspirator of pleasure, Mike Shannon.
