GENTICORUM Genticorum has become one of the most sought-after exponents
of Quebecois musical culture, having now performed and toured across
North America, Europe, Asia and Oceania - more than 15 countries
in all. Firmly rooted in the soil of their native land, they also
incorporate the dynamism of contemporary North American and European
folk cultures into their music. They weave precise and intricate
fiddle and flute work, gorgeous vocal harmonies, energetic foot
percussion, and guitar and bass accompaniment into a jubilant musical
feast. The trio's brand new album, La Bibournoise, was released
in Canada in April 2008 to critical acclaim. This work builds on
their trademark sound, combining rollicking interpretations of Quebec
folk songs with original instrumentals written in the traditional
style. Energetic yet folky, its harmonized songs sublime, its frenzied
rhythms mesmerizing, its arrangements fresh and unique - this is
La Bibournoise, and sometimes it's hard to believe it is the work
of just three band members
STRING THEORY
String Theory is a new traditional band, formed by a talented group
of young musicians who started as many good bands do- around the
kitchen table, and as result of countless festival and campfire
sessions. Based in Melbourne, they're a bunch with pretty eclectic
musical backgrounds. They come together with fiddles, banjo, guitar,
cello, Appalachian dulcimer, and sweet vocal harmonies, to serve
you up some traditional American folk songs and tunes.
