Lisa Ornstein, Normand Miron, and André Marchand are legends of Quebec’s traditional music scene. Between the three of them they have been on the roster of virtually every ground-breaking band over the past 30 years. Fiddler Lisa and guitarist/singer André first met as members of La Bottine Souriante, Quebec’s longest-running powerhouse supergroup. Button-accordionist/singer Normand Miron and André have been bandmates in a number of groups, including the amazing a-capella trad band Les Charbonniers de l’enfer (The Coalmen from Hell) Lisa, André and Normand have been playing as a trio since the 1990s, delighting audiences with their fiery dance music and finely-wrought vocals. When these three master musicians and very good friends take to the stage, their joy at making music together is evident and highly contagious.
