Montréal based band ROSIER – formerly known as LES POULES À COLIN – will make their first appearance at a Jenkins House Concert on Friday, March 6th. This extraordinary band pushes further exploration of the connections between Québec folk and the mix of indie, jazz, pop, bluegrass and contemporary styles. The group’s five members immerse us in their universe through original compositions, sophisticated arrangements, harmonic progressions and reinvented traditions. The bilingual band injects exuberant colour into folk traditions, taking the its roots and spinning this foundation into a movement. The result is a mature, well-controlled music filled with emotion and a surprising freshness that is relevant in today’s shifting climates. The band has created a layered sound that connects generations through origin and craft, reclaiming and interpreting the romantic traditions of Québécois folk through a modern lens.
Rosier's members are: frontwoman Béatrix Méthé (lead vocals, violin), Colin Savoie-Levac (lap steel, banjo and foot percussion), Sarah Marchand (lead vocals and keys), Éléonore Pitre (acoustic and electric guitars) and Marie Savoie-Levac (electric bass).
