Epilogue si tu penses un peu comme ça
Karl Tremblay (lead singer), Jérôme Dupras (bass), Dominque Lebeau (drums), Marie-Annick Lépine (violin, guitar) and Jean-François Pauzé (harmonica, guitar) are one of the best new Francophone bands: coming from Rétigny (Québec), they are known for their militant music. In this fifth album, they are singing about environmental issues or consumerism in modern society. Among their 16 songs, one of the best is « Les étoiles filantes », a tribute to young people. The best way to discover this Canadian band is to go to the concerts: their energetic folk-rock music is really impressing during live performances.
