Les Poules a Colin are a young band from Québec’s Lanaudière region famous for its traditional music. The five learned their craft firsthand from the finest in the genre. On top of natural talent, energy and respect for the repertoire, they have beautifully arranged new and traditional tunes and (mainly French) songs.
Their sound features gorgeous instrumentals, vocal and rhythmic prowess. They create a seamless blend of Québécois roots with American influences (bluegrass, cajun, jazz, Appalachia) and stringbending, moody effects that speaks eloquently to their own generation
Les Poules a Colin have played Winnipeg Folk Festival, Sunfest London, Pop Montreal, Mémoire et Racines, Festival de la Chanson de Tadoussac and toured France and the United States. This summer they perform at both Vancouver Folk Festival and Vancouver Island MusicFest, Harrison Festival and at La Grande Rencontre.
The group has recorded two albums, Hébertisme Nocturne (2011) and Ste-Waves (2014)
