Yves Lambert
Icon of the Quebec musical landscape, Yves Lambert has always been able to captivate the public with his music and his stories. One of the founders of La Bottine souriante in 1976 has pursued a brilliant solo career since the end of the 90s with the desire to make trad music current and accessible while asserting his passionate and open “Québécitude”.
At the dawn of his 50-year career, he returns to the festival with a fiery team who share this desire for creative arrangements and sound textures beyond notions of genre. : Paul Audy (guitar, voice), Robin Boulianne (violin, mandolin, Foot tapping, voice) and Mathieu Royer (double bass, voice).
