A gig held at Bristol Folk House on Friday 19th July. The event starts at 20:00.
Join us for a double-header gig with two exciting folk bands with a French twist, Club Débris and Cri du Canard!
Last year the two bands joined forces for a raucous gig in London, and now they're bringing this delightful collaboration to Bristol. Both acts are inspired by the joy in music which makes people want to dance, with Club Débris' focus on lively tunes from Quebec and Cri du Canard's French and Breton dance repertoire. Joining forces to bring you everything from sultry Breton schottisches to full-whack major key reels, this is an evening not to be missed... welcome to Club du Canard! Or is it Cri du Débris...
Club Débris is a Quebec-inspired folk band based in London, playing high-energy French-Canadian trad music in brazenly major keys. Québécois folk music is the result of many centuries of mixed influences between French, English, Scottish and Irish dance music, and is accompanied by driving, galloping foot percussion rhythms. Club Débris is formed of Will Allen (accordion/fiddle), Maisie Greenwood (fiddle), Duncan Menzies (fiddle/banjo), Will Chamberlain (piano) and Jessie Collins (percussive dance): together, they play no-nonsense tunes with a pro-nonsense attitude.
Cri du Canard (Call of the Duck), are a French folk trio, currently based in the North of England. Grace Smith, Sam Partridge, and Dave Gray invite you to share in the joy of French and Breton music, through the hypnotic interplay of fiddle, flute and melodeon. Expect to be transported to the beating musical heart of France, with an experience as nourishing for the soul as a good bowl of boeuf bourguignon.
Tickets available from Bristol Folk House, advance or on the door
