Radiant Baby, aka Félix Mongeon, est issu de la scène musicale montréalaise. Il découvre et apprend la composition musicale en autodidacte sur Ableton en 2013, tout en poursuivant son Doctorat en sciences sociales. Après quelques sets électroniques instrumentaux, il décide de chanter sur ses compositions pour exprimer son énergie sur scène et communiquer avec son public. Radiant Baby joue alors plusieurs spectacles sur la scène montréalaise, puis sort son premier EP It’s My Party (2017), suivi du LP Restless (2019), tous deux parus sur Lisbon Lux Records.
Son plus récent album, Pantomime, puise dans des influences vintages des 70s, en passant par le glam rock, le punk, le disco et le new wave. L’énergie ardente et brute de sa musique cultive les paradoxes en se juxtaposant à des atmosphères vulnérables, mélancoliques et romantiques, rappelant des artistes tels que Bowie, Blondie, Suicide, Pulp et Serge Gainsbourg.

Radiant Baby, aka Félix Mongeon, comes from the Montreal music scene. He discovered and learned music composition on his own, all while pursuing his PhD in social science. After a few electronic instrumental sets, he decided to layer his compositions with his own vocals to express his energy on stage and to communicate with the audience. Radiant Baby played several shows on Montreal stages, shortly after which he released his first EP It’s My Party (2017), followed by LP Restless (2019), both published on Lisbon Lux Records.
His most recent album, Pantomime, draws inspiration from 70s vintage, passing through glam rock, punk, disco, and new wave. The fiery and rough energy of his music cultivates paradoxes, juxtaposing vulnerable, melancholic, and romantic ambience, similar to artists such as Bowie, Blondie, Suicide, Pulp and Serge Gainsbourg.
