A Monday night punk show in a small room is a specific kind of commitment, and the people who make it out are the ones who end up telling the story later. Next Monday's story belongs to The SoapGirls, who play Siberia on Monday, Nov. 16.

The show is listed for 9 p.m., and tickets are $20 through DICE. The date was announced Oct. 29. Siberia holds about 200 people, so this is a close-quarters booking for a band that has spent 2026 crossing continents.

The SoapGirls are sisters Noémie "Mie" Debray and Camille "Mille" Debray, an alternative rock duo described as French-born and South African-raised, per Wikipedia. Their music sits where punk attitude meets big rock hooks, and their live reputation is the reason most fans find them in the first place. Screamer Magazine's interview with Mille is a good primer on how they see themselves.

This year has been their Rebel DNA cycle. The tour has been billed as a world run across the UK, Europe, Japan and the United States, and it took the duo through U.S. clubs over the summer, Screamer Magazine and SLR Magazine reported, with stops from El Corazón in Seattle to a September and October stretch in Germany. One account of the tour put the full run at May through November, which puts New Orleans near the tail end of a very long year on the road.

The tour is tied to a new album, also called Rebel DNA, which the sisters wrote and produced entirely themselves. Its lead single, "Running," kicked off what That Eric Alper described as a waterfall release plan stretching through 2026, alternating poppier songs with heavier rock tracks. The band frames the record around reclaiming identity and refusing to be shaped by other people's expectations, which is about as clear a mission statement as a punk band can offer.

A band at the end of a world tour is either running on fumes or playing the tightest sets of its life. Small rooms tend to bring out the second one.

That is the case for going on a Monday. By mid-November a touring band has played these songs night after night in every kind of room, and the set is as sharp as it will ever be. In a space this size, there is no barricade distance and no hiding in the back; you are part of the show whether you planned to be or not.

It also fits the way the duo has always worked: self-produced, self-directed and built on a fan base that grew one sweaty club at a time. New Orleans has never needed convincing that a weeknight can turn into the best night of the week.

So grab a ticket while 200 is still a lot of spots, show up early, and leave your Tuesday morning plans flexible.
