While on tour with Tragedy Ann, we recorded a live version of La Légende de Roustabout / Roustabout with the incredible Liv Cazzola on musical saw.

Right before filming, the heel on Kaitlin's boot broke and was temporarily repaired with tape and Alex nearly injured himself falling off the log! Luckily we were in good company - Liv outdid herself with spooky saw improv, Braden told some bad jokes, Katie and Francisco were ever patient behind the lens and board working shadows on the wall and avoiding plosives on the mic - and eventually, with some coaxing and twinkly lights, we conjured our ghost into being in The Tare Shop's basement.

This version features the alternate English poem in our Ste-Quequepart liner notes. Hope you enjoy!

Our LIVE at LIVE session drops today! So much gratitude to the great Ottawa folks behind the board and lens, to all those who joined us for the filming and, of course, to our pals at LIVE on Elgin for helping us to share a couple songs and stories from Ste-Quequepart. Enjoy La Veuve and Francoeur!

Fed up with their asleep-at-the-switch mayor, the villagers of Ste-Quequepart moved the town hall meeting to Chez Hector to sing their frustrations.

Wow! So much gratitude for the hard work of the many hands and hearts that made this video possible. Full credits below. Hope you enjoy!

SPECIAL THANKS TO Adrian, Sammy and Phil at Belmont

This past July, we teamed up with Ottawa’s own Shot in the Dark Sessions for a woodsy capture of Les Marins. Many thanks to Gallery Recording Studio, JustPixl, our hosts in Dunrobin, TacoLot who fed us all, and all the other musicians who braved the bugs with us!

Two months ago, we performed our new album Ste-Quequepart - "Saint-Somewhere" - to a packed house at St. Alban's Church for the very first time. With the help of some intrepid co-conspirators, we are delighted to bring you a series of live videos from that performance. « La Veuve » is the first villager you'll meet!
