Réveillons! offers a new approach to traditional music; their repertoire is not confined to a single, fixed period in time, their music is alive, and while it retains the spirit of tradition, it never ceases to grow and change as the band explores creation, archives and interpretations. Réveillons! fits right in with the current universal trend, a collective longing to "return to our roots", in that it works to revive and stimulate tradition and cultural heritage.
"Réveillons!" is, in French, the present imperative form of the verb "to awaken". Wake up! It is a clear and precise embodiment of the message the band seeks to convey. Indeed, since it was founded in 1996, Réveillons! has been on a mission to reawaken the traditions and culture that lie dormant within each of us. Réveillons! present a fine music for listening, dancing, singing and playing from Québec. The band offers reels, jigs, french songs, step dancing and dances to keep you moving through both the day and the night.
The quartet, based in Montreal, has performed at major festivals in Québec as well as various metropolitan bars where, like in the olden days, the rhythms of traditional music breathe life into evenings of dancing and rejoicing.
