Startijenn

Known as the undisputed masters of the Breton dancefloor, Startijenn (“full of energy” in Breton) has carved a notable place in the Folk/World scene: Festivals such as Les Vieilles Charrues Carhaix, Festival Interceltique Lorient, Festival Yaouank Rennes, Womex 2022 Lisbonne, Celtic Connections Écosse, Trad It Festival Pays-Bas, Blue Mountains Music Festival Australie and more.

Formed in 1997 near Brest, born at the heart of traditional music, equipped with iconic Breton instruments and an efficient rhythm, their raw and nervous sound hits the mark! Rooted and universal, the group continues to push boundaries and explore new musical territories, defending their culture on international stages. This locomotive of Breton trance runs on sweat and audience energy, in an exhilarating and unique live performance.

Drawing from their roots, the band transforms centuries-old music into a modern, innovative, and rigorously effective sound!
