Tricot Machine was a Canadian indie pop band, active from 2005 to 2012. Originally from Trois-Rivières, Quebec, the band's core members were Catherine Leduc and Matthieu Beaumont.[1]

Formed in 2005, Leduc and Beaumont released their self-titled debut album in 2007 on Grosse Boîte. They won a Félix Award that year for Révélation de l'année (New Artist of the Year),[1] and won the Echo Songwriting Prize (French division) for their single "L'Ours".[2]

In 2008, the duo released Tricot Machine chante et raconte 25 décembre, a Christmas-themed package comprising an EP of Christmas music and an illustrated children's book featuring an original Christmas story.[3] They followed up with their second full-length album, La prochaine étape, in 2010.[4]

Leduc announced in early 2013 that she was working on her debut solo album, slated for release in fall 2013.[1]
