This is like home to me. I grew up southern Louisiana (Lafayette/Opelousas). I heard music like this for many years.

This is the envy even of France, which no longer has meaningful music in the French language.

C’est gars là font le tour du monde depuis des années en faisants connaître la culture Québécoise partout où ils passent. Ils mérite selon moi l’ordre national du Québec!

En fait, je suis tombé sur le groupe sur You Tube purement par hasard, mais je les ai rapidement pris dans mon cœur musical, ils font de la bonne musique et le contenu de beaucoup de leurs chansons est comme une leçon pour nous étrangers, ils se stimulent avec la vie et s'occuper de l'histoire de leur pays.

Every time I listen to this kind of music I feel more closer to my Québécois heritage. ❤

I love French-Canadian music from my fellow Latins the French Canadians. Here an American born in Argentina, I also love the French language but I have been too busy learning the world's lingua franca English to have time for French.

Vive Quebec et vive Le Vent du Nord!

The French-Canadian resistance to total acculturation to the English language is an example of Latin independence.

Ce groupe est tout simplement incroyable

Tiene mucho sentido porque el flamenco es muy rítmico como esta musica franco-canadiense. Estuve en Montréal, y me sentí tan latino como en cualquier cultura latina de Europa o Latinoamérica.

Not only do I already love Quebecois music, I love these guys even more! I started with La Bottine Souriante, and then stumbled upon Le Vent Du Nord! Absolutely fantastic! I have 4 of their albums!

Love these guys. Superb musicians and their a Capella singing is just brilliant. Seen them a few times. Can't quite understand the Quebecois French sometimes but that doesn't matter. The guy with hurdygurdy is Nicolas Boularice. Fiddle Olivier Demers, accordion Rëjean Brunet, guitar Simon Beaudry. Réjean's brother Andre is now with them. He plays fiddle . I am hooked!

Members of the band, if you read this: Thank you so, so much. You guys truly embody and emit the tunes, feelings and the beat.

I first met these lads back in 2008 at ICONS and they were so amazing 🤩 I’ve been a huge fan since!

Incredibly inspiring. Thank you for sharing that! Over an hour of dancing around the room 🙂 Le Vent du Nord are amazing!

We the West's Latins are a big extended family. I visited Montréal years ago and in spite of my basic French (I am a native Spanish speaker) I felt totally at home culturally speaking. I wish I have had more time to learn French but learning English at the college level has been a full-time job for me.

Being a fluent Spanish-speaker, I have little trouble understanding what they sing. Also, when I visited Montréal years ago I loved people's willingness to speak to me in Spanish rather than English, this as a courtesy.

I love the step dancing fiddler. A jaws harp, vielle a rue and a fiddle! What can be more traditionally French. C'est si bon!

I saw them perform last night in Boston at the MFA. They never fail to disappoint. Their music makes me happy. Chair dance through the entire show. Saw them for the first time at the Lowell Folk Festival and have seen them every time they come to Boston. Love these musicians!

Saw Le Vent du Nord in Earliville NY last night! This band is so talented and fabulous! One of my favorite nights ever! Thank you!

Saw le Vent du Nord at Shetland Folk Festival 2022- superb but even better was the session on the overnight ferry back to Aberdeen. Brilliant! 🎻🎻🎻

I have no idea what they're saying in French- but I love Canada and this music!! Greetings from NYC!! 😄

José, musiciens inclassables pour nous francophones alors merci de vos petites tournées annuelles très attendues en hexagone.... Normandie France

I get to see them play live soon for the second time and I'm so excited!

Saw them live at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall during Celtic Connections a few years ago. The place was jumping. Absolutely brilliant gig.

They are first rate. Love the hurdy gurdy and old tunes of Montreal. Come to Bury again, messieurs!

I first saw Le Vent du Nord when I attended MMLA, the high school version of Middlebury Language Schools. I did the French program, and the French school took a trip to visit Middlebury College for a Vent du Nord concert. I also saw them at Francofolies in Montréal. They were fantastic!

Bravo les gars , merci de propager notre belle culture à travers le vieux continent .Pourquoi les Francophones ne se rappel pas ? parce qu'on ne leur enseigne pas .

Love these guys; heard them in Pittsburgh and Bay Harbor. Am a keyboardist and would be happy to show up and learn!!

Yo los vi en el Festival Cervantino, en la ciudad de Guanajuato México. Me encantó.

Passants, prenez pitié de ma misère Soulage-moi, je suis un pauvre enfant J'ai faim, j'ai soif, lorsqu'on n'a plus de mère Oh que la vie est un fardeau pesant Elle n'est plus cette mère si bonne Me voilà seul errant sur le chemin Je tends la main, rarement l'on me donne Un peu de pain pour apaiser ma faim Lorsque la nuit, sa longue robe grise Éclipse au loin le doux azur des cieux Sous un feuillage agité par la brise Vers le passé, je rejette les yeux Je la revois cette mère si bonne Je crois encore reposer sur son sein Je veux parler, mon coeur a cru l'entendre Mais l'écho seul répond à l'orphelin Par le soleil a paru d'la lumière Je sors tremblant de mon réduit poudreux Au Tout-Puissant j'adresse une prière Quand j'ai prié, je suis moins malheureux Je songe au ciel, au bonheur de l'innocence Où règne Dieu, le Père du faible monde En lui j'espère, il gagnera mes souffrances C'est un bon Père, il aime l'orphelin
