Les Breastfeeders are a francophone rock 'n' roll band from Montreal.

Formed in 1999, Les Breastfeeders were finalists in the 2003 edition of Les Francouvertes and also won the SOCAN award for best francophone song of the year in 2003, with their song Angle Mort. After releasing their first album entitled Déjeuner sur l'herbe in 2004 on Blow The Fuse Records, Les Breastfeeders embarked on their first east-coast tour in the United States, while appearing on several American College Radio charts all while their popularity in their home province of Québec kept on rising. During the summer Les Breastfeeders played at Les FrancoFolies de Montréal (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007) and opened for The New York Dolls at the Quebec City Summer Festival (2005), where they won the Best Canadian Artist – Étoiles Galaxie award (Prix miroir Artiste d'ici).

In February 2006, the band was asked to participate on the Joe Dassin tribute CD called Salut Joe! Hommage à Joe Dassin, for which they recorded the song " Bip-Bip". They then took time to record and release their second album Les matins de grands soirs (August 2006), also on Blow The Fuse Records. The video for Mini Jupe et Watusi was featured on "The Knights of Fuzz" DVD, released by Dionysus Records.

On October 1, 2006, Les Breastfeeders, alongside Emily Haines and the Soft Skeleton, Les Trois Accords and The Joel Plaskett Emergency, took part in SEE VOUS PLAY, a show presented by Bande à part and CBC Radio 3.
