On fiddle, mandolin, tenor banjo, guitars, keyboards and bass, Les Poules a Colin (Colin's Chickens) play a fine combination of slow and fast fiddle tunes and songs, mainly sung in French. Instrumentals are driven by by sound of foot percussion, danced by Colin Savoie-Levac while he plays either mandolin or tenor banjo.. The other 4 are all women, including Colin's sister Marie, on bass, hence the name of the band.
