Miriodor: A look at their 30+ year recording career including their latest Signal 9

Formed originally in Quebec City in 1980 by the duo of Pascal Globensky (keyboards) and François Émond (violin, flute, keyboards, clarinet) the band quickly expanded to a sextet adding Rémi Leclerc (percussion), Sabin Hudon (saxophones), Denis Robitaille (guitar, bass, vocals) and Marc Petitclerc (keyboards). The first LP was self-released in 1984 (released in CD format by Cuneiform records in 1998). "...a perfect marriage between the more chamber oriented sounds of Univers Zero...and the more symphonic, woodwind-oriented sound of bands like Happy The Man and VDGG." – Exposé Shortly thereafter the quartet of Pascal Globensky, François Émond, Rémi Leclerc and Sabin Hudon made the move to Montréal becoming a trio in 1987 with the departure of François and their first release in 1988 on Cuneiform records with whom they have remained since that time. In 1993 guitarist Bernard Falaise was added to the line-up to be followed a few years later by Nicolas Masino (bass, keys) and Marie-Chantal Leclair (saxophones). By 2011 Miriodor were back to being a trio (Falaise, Globensky and Leclerc), but the addition of Nicolas Lessard on bass and keys returned them into the quartet format. "rock-oriented post-modern chamber music, with definite humorous overtones." - Bass player Nicolas Masino
