November 4th: Claude Méthé

$20/18

Québec traditional fiddler, singer and composer. Claude Méthé plays and sings traditional Québécois songs and music. A self-taught musician, he has made his mark as both a fiddler and singer on the trad scene in a career that already spans 30 years and includes stints as a member of numerous groups who have influenced the rebirth of "musique folklorique" in Québec: Le Rêve du Diable, Manigance, Entourloupe, Dent-de-lion and others. A prolific composer, his music can be heard on recordings by his peers and in jam sessions in his home region of Lanaudière as well as in Montréal. Besides his compositions, his personal repertoire includes many tunes learned from his close friend and mentor Aimé Gagnon, who died in 1997. Dana Whittle and Denise Levac will accompany. http://www.claudemethe.com/
