We’re all Twisted Puppets, until the music sets us free!
Third Place is more than a rock band — it’s a release. Based in Montreal and active since 2007, the band fuses anthemic alt-rock, pop hooks, and theatrical energy into an emotionally experience.
Their immersive live show, The Psycho Show, turns concerts into catharsis — where masks drop, chaos heals, and the crowd becomes part of the story. They’ve played over 400 shows across North America & Europe sharing the stage with All Time Low, Shinedown, and Puddle of Mudd, and hitting major festivals like Warped Tour and Rockfest.
Their latest chapter begins in 2025 with Out of My Mind, an anthem for the silently overwhelmed — a scream behind the smile in a world gone numb. Welcome to the chaos. Welcome to the Twisted Puppets tribe!
​Over 400 shows across Canada, USA & Italy.
