KONZERT

Paycheque began with a chance meeting on the patio of Los Angeles venue Zebulon in February 2020, just before the world shut down. Allison Goldfarb, a filmmaker and musician from St. Louis, and Jackson MacIntosh, a member of TOPS and Drugdealer and a longtime fixture in the Montreal music scene, had been orbiting similar social circles before being introduced at a mutual friend’s show. They struck up an immediate friendship and exchanged mix CDs, bonding over a shared love of sophisti-pop and italo.
