Since forming in August 2002, Le Vent du Nord have been enjoying meteoric success. They have received several prestigious awards, and the band is now one of the most-loved Quebec folk outfits throughout the world. The group’s current line-up consists of singers / multi-instrumentalists Nicolas Boulerice, Simon Beaudry, Olivier Demers, and Réjean Brunet.
In addition to their traditional repertoire, the group has exhibited great finesse and flexibility, appearing regularly on Canadian and French television and radio, and participating in a striking variety of special musical projects. They’ve collaborated and performed with The Chieftains, with Breton musical pioneer Yann-Fañch Kemener, with Quebecois roots legend and master storyteller Michel Faubert, with Scottish folk band Breabach, and with the trans-Mediterranean Ensemble Constantinople.
