La Belle Petite Équipe
A transatlantic journey
Roland BROU – vocals, bodhran
Paul MARCHAND – guitar, vocals, foot percussion
Liette REMON – violin, vocals, ukulele
Liette Remon and Paul Marchand, from Quebec, and Roland Brou and Patrick Couton, from Brittany, have been presenting an original, dynamic and sensitive show since 2016, built around sung life stories that place humanity at the forefront.
Traditional repertoires from Quebec, Brittany, Acadia and Cajun, as well as original compositions, recount the harshness of labour on building sites, loves – whether unhappy or not – uprooting and departure… The words are moving because, beyond the anecdote, they touch on the universal.
La Belle Équipe has performed in Quebec at the Chants de Vielles festival (St-Antoine-sur-Richelieu), the Harmonies Celtiques festival (Eastern Townships), the Rendez-Vous ès-Trad (Quebec City), as well as at the Bogue d’Or in Redon, the Festival du Chant de Marin (Paimpol), the Festival de Lorient, and the Festival Mémoire et Racines …
Following the summer 2025 tour of Brittany, we will return to Quebec for the Chants de Vielles festival to celebrate the group’s tenth anniversary.
Unfortunately, Patrick Couton will not be joining us, and we will be performing under the name ‘La belle petite équipe’.
