Rosier, a bilingual female-fronted Montreal-based collective, perfectly embodies the expression « between tradition and modernity. » With a strong ethereal, poetic, and dreamy inclination, the quintet brings a unique touch to today’s indie-folk scene. Their repertoire of modernized traditional music highlights female voices expressing contemporary values while remaining rooted in their origins, blending indie sounds with pop influences.
The close-knit band of Rosier has been performing together for over a decade, formerly known as Les Poules à Colin. They have played in more than fifteen countries worldwide, released five albums, including the 2021 album Légèrement, and garnered four major nominations, including one at the ADISQ Gala and three at the Canadian Folk Music Awards. Their next album is set for release in the fall of 2024.
Accustomed to both local and international tours since their inception, the quintet has so far shone in major cities and numerous villages around the world. Events such as the Edmonton Folk Festival, TSB Festival Of Lights (New Zealand), Rocky Mountain Folks Festival (USA), Port Fairy Folk Festival (Australia), Tonder Folk Festival (Denmark), Festival Pause-Guitare (France), Bardentreffen Festival (Germany), Itinerari Folk Festival (Italy), Bromyard Folk Festival (UK), Edinburgh Fringe Festival (Scotland), and the Jeux de la Francophonie in Abidjan (Ivory Coast), to name just a few, have hosted their performances
