Big Brave (stylized as BIG | BRAVE) is a Canadian heavy metal band formed in 2012 in Montreal, known for their blend of drone doom and post-metal.[1] The members are guitarist/vocalist Robin Wattie, guitarist Mathieu Ball, and drummer Tasy Hudson.
While Wattie and Ball are original members, having played together as an acoustic-oriented duo before forming Big Brave,[2] Hudson joined them in 2020, replacing former drummer Loel Campbell, who himself had replaced original drummer Louis-Alexandre Beauregard.
Big Brave have released seven studio albums, the latest being 2024's A Chaos of Flowers and one collaborative album with The Body in 2021, Leaving None but Small Birds.
They have been three-time Polaris Music Prize nominees, with longlist nods at the 2021 Polaris Music Prize for Vital,[3] the 2023 Polaris Music Prize for nature morte,[4] and the 2024 Polaris Music Prize for A Chaos of Flowers.[5]
