Our Take

Ah, the latest offering from Quebecois folk outfit Le Vent du Nord, Tromper Le Temps, is a delightful romp through traditional French-Canadian music with a modern twist. From the opening track "La Traversee" to the hauntingly beautiful "Loup-Garou," this album is a masterclass in blending old and new.

The band's harmonies are as tight as a duck's proverbial posterior, with each member showcasing their instrumental prowess on tracks like "Mamzelle Kennedy" and "Le Coeur de ma Mere." It's a veritable smorgasbord of musical talent that will have you tapping your toes and wishing you were sipping maple syrup by a roaring fire in Quebec.

But it's not all traditional fare here. Le Vent du Nord isn't afraid to experiment, as evidenced by the electronic flourishes on "Le Diable et le Fermier" and the unexpected rap verse on "Le Vigneron." It's a bold move that pays off, adding a modern edge to an otherwise timeless sound.

Overall, Tromper Le Temps is a treat for the ears and a journey through the rich tapestry of French-Canadian music. Le Vent du Nord proves once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the folk music scene. So grab a croissant, put on your dancing shoes, and let Le Vent du Nord whisk you away on a musical adventure unlike any other. C'est fantastique!
