This is like home to me. I grew up southern Louisiana (Lafayette/Opelousas). I heard music like this for many years.

C’est gars là font le tour du monde depuis des années en faisants connaître la culture Québécoise partout où ils passent. Ils mérite selon moi l’ordre national du Québec!

Vive Quebec et vive Le Vent du Nord!

Every time I listen to this kind of music I feel more closer to my Québécois heritage. ❤

Not only do I already love Quebecois music, I love these guys even more! I started with La Bottine Souriante, and then stumbled upon Le Vent Du Nord! Absolutely fantastic! I have 4 of their albums!

"Jawstine Troudeau"... Gotta love that "inside".

Ce groupe est tout simplement incroyable

VOUS SUIS MAGNIFICENT!!!! Greetings from the south of Spain. You have fans even in the land of flamenco. Your terroir is true

Ô mon pays c'est un chant que j'entend sur le vent. Ô mon pays c'est un cri vers l'infini sur la vie🌹

Love these guys. Superb musicians and their a Capella singing is just brilliant. Seen them a few times. Can't quite understand the Quebecois French sometimes but that doesn't matter. The guy with hurdygurdy is Nicolas Boularice. Fiddle Olivier Demers, accordion Rëjean Brunet, guitar Simon Beaudry. Réjean's brother Andre is now with them. He plays fiddle . I am hooked!

Le Vent du Nord, one of the few ways I can revel in my Québécois heritage.

Members of the band, if you read this: Thank you so, so much. You guys truly embody and emit the tunes, feelings and the beat.

I love French-Canadian music from my fellow Latins the French Canadians. Here an American born in Argentina, I also love the French language but I have been too busy learning the world's lingua franca English to have time for French.

I love that Quebec foot stomping - I know how to do, it but only for one song then the leg muscles give up!

I first met these lads back in 2008 at ICONS and they were so amazing 🤩 I’ve been a huge fan since!

Et voilà, pour ceux qui voulaient savoir les noms des tounes! There you go guys for anybody who wanted to know the name of the songs! 00:00 Noce tragique 05:27 Cardeuse - Riopel 10:23 Confédération 16:05 La marche des Iroquois 18:27 Papineau 23:08 Petit rêve IX 24:46 Pauvre enfant 28:50 Le Cœur En Trois 34:54 Lanlaire 41:32 L'échafaud 43:55 Entre ciel et terre 49:11 Forillon 55:12 Rosette 1:01:56 Manzelle Kennedy 1:07:09 Au bord de la fontaine

Incredibly inspiring. Thank you for sharing that! Over an hour of dancing around the room 🙂 Le Vent du Nord are amazing!

Vous êtes juste incroyables , merci.

Watching people the other side of the Atlantic dance to these guys while they are barely known here in their homeland Québec make me cry.

Merci !!! Merveilleux... d'être portes paroles de notre culture. !

Maudit que J'adore Le Vent du Nord ! Quel groupe !

Have been listening to this on repeat all day at work. So grateful to have found these guys. It's wonderful they keep this more traditional music alive. Thank you for posting!

I saw them perform last night in Boston at the MFA. They never fail to disappoint. Their music makes me happy. Chair dance through the entire show. Saw them for the first time at the Lowell Folk Festival and have seen them every time they come to Boston. Love these musicians!

I love the step dancing fiddler. A jaws harp, vielle a rue and a fiddle! What can be more traditionally French. C'est si bon!

I only "discovered" this group last Christmas 2019 and have not turned back! Great Celtic tunes and instrumentation. Language is not an obstacle to their great musicianship!

Tres interessant!!!! Merci beaucoups!!! I portray a French Blackrobe missionary priest at our old fort and have never hear of Le Vent du Nord until yesterday. I will be exploring your music! Vive Montreal!! Vive Quebec!!! Vive la France!!

So excellent! Props to the fiddle playing + foot percussion chap! Can't wait to see ye again!

High energy, superb musicianship. Saw them at Celtic Connections 2020 - sold out performance. Fabulous.

Vous et les charbonnier , vous êtes les meilleurs !

I enjoyed their wonderful music in the small Indiana town of New Harmony and would love to see them again live. - Merci et bravo

I have no idea what they're saying in French- but I love Canada and this music!! Greetings from NYC!! 😄

That smile is like a sunrise.

I first heard them at the New World Music Festival in Randolph Vermont. So much talent and energy.

Saw them a few days ago at WOMADelaide 2018, with André Brunet making up the quintet, and they were absolutely brilliant!

I love these guys. I wish I spoke French though...

Saw Le Vent du Nord in Earliville NY last night! This band is so talented and fabulous! One of my favorite nights ever! Thank you!

just found this, where have I been? great, thanks, it is a music of good folk

José, musiciens inclassables pour nous francophones alors merci de vos petites tournées annuelles très attendues en hexagone.... Normandie France

Yo los vi en el Festival Cervantino, en la ciudad de Guanajuato México. Me encantó.

They are first rate. Love the hurdy gurdy and old tunes of Montreal. Come to Bury again, messieurs!

I get to see them play live soon for the second time and I'm so excited!

Saw le Vent du Nord at Shetland Folk Festival 2022- superb but even better was the session on the overnight ferry back to Aberdeen. Brilliant! 🎻🎻🎻

Bravo les gars , merci de propager notre belle culture à travers le vieux continent .Pourquoi les Francophones ne se rappel pas ? parce qu'on ne leur enseigne pas .

Le Vent du Nord ,la vielle à roue ,le violon,la guimbarde tapons du pied la vastringue va commencer , ya ti encore quelqu'un pour câller le set cârré✨

Saw them live at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall during Celtic Connections a few years ago. The place was jumping. Absolutely brilliant gig.

This is excellent.

listening to this was a great warm up for tomorrow in Madison.

I first saw Le Vent du Nord when I attended MMLA, the high school version of Middlebury Language Schools. I did the French program, and the French school took a trip to visit Middlebury College for a Vent du Nord concert. I also saw them at Francofolies in Montréal. They were fantastic!

une fièreté de ce bon vieux pays oublié à recréer

J'aime beaucoup

Vive Le Vent du Nord et tout les Francophone !

Their performance in Boothbay Harbor of this song (and every other) was like this- fantastic!

Can't wait to hear you this Saturday at the Albuquerque Folk Festival!

Passants, prenez pitié de ma misère Soulage-moi, je suis un pauvre enfant J'ai faim, j'ai soif, lorsqu'on n'a plus de mère Oh que la vie est un fardeau pesant Elle n'est plus cette mère si bonne Me voilà seul errant sur le chemin Je tends la main, rarement l'on me donne Un peu de pain pour apaiser ma faim Lorsque la nuit, sa longue robe grise Éclipse au loin le doux azur des cieux Sous un feuillage agité par la brise Vers le passé, je rejette les yeux Je la revois cette mère si bonne Je crois encore reposer sur son sein Je veux parler, mon coeur a cru l'entendre Mais l'écho seul répond à l'orphelin Par le soleil a paru d'la lumière Je sors tremblant de mon réduit poudreux Au Tout-Puissant j'adresse une prière Quand j'ai prié, je suis moins malheureux Je songe au ciel, au bonheur de l'innocence Où règne Dieu, le Père du faible monde En lui j'espère, il gagnera mes souffrances C'est un bon Père, il aime l'orphelin

❤️❤️🙏

Très bon
