Bombe De Flore - Figure déserte |
À tout jamais De Flore - Figure déserte |
De Flore est l’union indéniable des auteur(e)s compositeur(ice)s interprètes Sarah-Anne LaCombe et Mathieu Gauthier. Natif du même village, aux abords de la rivière des Outaouais, le duo se laisse séduire par le temps qui s’échappe en créant une musique qui tente de saisir l’invisible. Après avoir livré un premier EP (Figure Déserte) ancré dans la nouvelle vague qui emmêle les frontières des genres, le duo passe de l'électro-roots à la chanson dream-pop. Leur dernier single projette une vibe nostalgique aux couleurs pastelles, avec une poésie évasive aux textures velours-fumés. De Flore est une fusion parfaitement sensuelle de pop, psychedelia, disco-funk et lounge.

All Over Again Fiùran - Fulangach |
Maol DOWN Fiùran - Fulangach |
Fiùran is a Celtic rock band from Ottawa, Canada. Led by a Celtic goddess and backed by three men of mettle who play rock that’s harder than Scottish granite. Fiùran blends haunting and ethereal traditional melodies with hard-hitting original songs in both Scots Gaelic and English. Their songs offer foot-stomping singalongs and meaningful lyrics about real everyday struggles. From bagpipes to bass guitar, and fiddle to full-on drum kit, they’re a unique spectacle and experience. The show is exciting and dynamic, with witty banter, stories of lore, and spontaneous moments. Older than the best oak barrel-aged whisky, but with a harder kick, Fiùran excites audiences to play air-guitar and air-bagpipes in equal measure.
Fiùran means sapling. New Growth. New Sound. It’s Scots Gaelic. The language of early Canadians. The language of the ancient Celts. The voice of earth Herself. Fiùran translate their Gaelic songs and stories, and bring the audience along -- but it’s a language that’s already familiar. A sound from within. It’s primal. It’s the wind beneath your kilt. It’ll shake your soul and put your lighter in the air. Fiùran rocks! Fiùran won an Independent Music Award in 2020, and continues to be a radio favourite in Scotland and the UK. Called “outstanding” by RnR Magazine, and “clever integration of rock and traditional sounds” by Top40 Charts, Fiùran is expanding its global reach, including a growing loyal fanbase in South America. Fiùran’s fourth album will be released for Christmas 2021. Suas E!
