RABASKA

Rabaska biography
Named for a large birch bark canoe initially built and used by indigenous peoples, Quebecois group RABASKA from the Eastern Townships performs a blend of rock, prog and the folk of their native land. They are friends first who formed a band to satisfy their desire to play music.

The following information is translated from a bio provided by Laurent of Rabaska:

The group was founded by Laurent Galipeau-Théroux and incorporated a panoply de of styles notably inspired by many artists including HARMONIUM, CANO, BEAU DOMMAGE, Robert Charlebois, PINK FLOYD, and GAROLOU. Vocals are sung in French by both male and female singers.

Rabaska offers a soaring spectacle, strewn with rock and folk, in a warm and cheery atmosphere. The profound lyrics are accompanied by rich rhythmic instrumentation colored by prog, folk and funk.

Since the release of their self titled first album in April 2023, the group has wind in their sails and are performing live throughout their home province. The album includes 11 original tracks.

With this project, Rabaska wished to offer a touching, more accessible form of progressive rock. To be discovered and appreciated whether alone, among friends, with family, or your better half.
