Anemone is a psychedelic pop quintet, styled "ANEMONE" and mispronounced, [1] which formed in Montreal, Quebec in September 2015. [2] Named after the song " Anemone" by The Brian Jonestown Massacre, it is fronted by the pianist and singer Chloé Soldevila, a Montreal native with classical training in the flute and piano. The band's compositions feature both baroque [3] influences and counter melody.
Their line-up was Soldevila, drummer Miles Dupire-Gagnon (also of Elephant Stone), guitarist Gabriel Lambert, bass guitarist Samuel Gemme, and guitarist and backing vocalist Zach Irving, who left the band in 2020. [4] [5] They have been called Montreal's best new psych band, [6] and topped Paste magazine's list of the ten bands they were most excited to see at the 2019 Treefort Music Fest in Boise, Idaho, [7] as well as being second on Inlander's must-see list.

In 2018, Anemone released the EP Baby Only You & I. [9] In 2019, they released their debut album Beat My Distance, which received luke-warm reviews. [10] [11] However, also in 2019, they received a SOCAN Songwriting Prize nomination for the song "She's the One". [12] [13]
