Le Diable à Cinq

Le Diable à Cinq, c’est un puissant groupe de musique folk-trad québécoise mettant en vedette cinq artistes avec la drive dans le tapis qui se partagent la scène avec une complicité palpable et une énergie débordante. Avec leur présence de scène explosive et leur attitude rock, les cinq diables embrasent la soirée au son d’une musique énergique, chaleureuse et résolument rassembleuse.

" Heirs to the tradition of high-energy, genre-defining neo trad established by La Bottine Souriante and carried forth by acts like Le Vent du Nord and Genticorum, the members of Le Diable play with the precision of classical musicians and the intensity of rock n’ rollers. Their harmonies are spot on, their arrangements just daring enough to stand out from the crowd, and their energy is through the roof. " - Roots Music Canada

" They’re a directly communicating crew of entertainers, operating on a folk-plus level, with a guitarist who hunkers down like a furious metal riffmeister (on acoustic) and a fiddle/squeezebox team who both tap loudly on amplified wooden boards. The short-neck banjo sounds like a titanic axe. " - Songline UK
