5-piece band from Quebec playing traditional Quebecois music and originals. 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. Beatrix Methe is on vocals and fiddle, Sarah Marchand is on keyboards and vocals and Elenore Pitre is on guitar and vocals.
Some the music they play originates in the French part of Louisiana.
