A visually stunning concert

Besides the visual effects duringInternet, the trio was accompanied, throughout their performance, by breathtaking games of color and light. So much on Above-ground swimming poolwhere we had the impression of seeing them singing in the water, that on Bamboulawhere they were projected with an apocalyptic neopunk effect, it was an impressive sight to watch.

Minor voice issues

The band’s singer, Simon Proulx, confessed to the crowd that he had problems with his throat. Without intending to end the show, he asked the crowd to help him with the lyrics. It didn’t fall on deaf ears, especially not for the song all naked, which the spectators sang at the top of their voices. You could, however, still see the discomfort in the singer’s face, even when he wasn’t pushing the note.

lovers who love each other was enough to melt the hearts of the supporters, who danced and sang in the rain, the smile split from ear to ear.

The group from Drummondville presented more recent creations during their show, with Shoplifting. No surprise on this side: Les Trois Accords have kept the recipe that made them successful, a folk rock sound, dressed in light and pleasant lyrics to listen to.

High class

The group invited the singer of Bleu Jeans Bleu as well as Lumière to join them on stage. For the occasion, those who preceded Les Trois Accords accompanied them on the piece I love your grandmother. It must be said that the thousands of spectators also joined in this celebration.

I touch myself in the park

With all the seriousness in the world, the singer of the group told the crowd that he was very proud to be in front of them. He went on to rejoice that his mother was in attendance, which caused a strong reaction from the audience.

“I think my mom is going to be proud of our next song, since we’ve worked so hard to create it… So here’s I touch myself in the park“, he launched, to everyone’s surprise. A very funny moment of the performance.

For this song, which begins with ballad tunes, Simon Proulx seemed alone on stage with his electric guitar. The effect of the rain coming through the mauve lights brought quite an effect to the rest of the song, which ended in a communion of instruments.

In the end, the festival-goers who arrived on the Plains without knowing if they were going to have the chance to see the headliners, because of the rain, will have been treated to quite a show. Something to make those who have withdrawn regret.
