É.T.É.

The fruitful meeting of three young musicians with vibrant artistic journeys, É.T.É proposes a dynamic and contemporary vision of Québécois trad music. With influences from jazz, progressive rock, and classical music, violinist Élisabeth Moquin, bouzouki player Thierry Clouette and cellist Élisabeth Giroux create their own trad universe with original compositions and unique arrangements of Québécois and Acadian repertoire. Their rich vocal harmonies, their groove, their ease at their instruments and their electrifying connection onstage transforms the ordinary kitchen party into an unforgettable show! Following the release of their first album Le boire des minuits in 2017, É.T.É won the “Emerging” prize from Grands prix Desjardins de la culture de Lanaudière in 2017 and a “Lucien” from GAMIQ (Québec Independent Music Awards) in 2020. Their second album, Les quatre roses, was nominated at both OPUS and ADISQ in 2020. The group has toured extensively throughout Canada, the USA, Scotland, Belgium and Australia. Their most recent album, Sur ces eaux, was released in November 2022.
