Genticorum

at The Queen's Hall

We first met Genticorum when they opened up for the Michael McGoldrick Band in May 2009. We were blown away by them and have been trying to get them back for a headline show ever since.

Firmly rooted in the soil of their native land of Québéc, the energetic and original traditional ‘power trio’ - Yann Falquet, Alexandre de Grosbois-Garand and Pascal Gemme - also incorporates the dynamism of today’s North American and European folk cultures in their music. They weave precise and intricate fiddle and flute work, gorgeous vocal harmonies, energetic foot percussion and guitar and bass accompaniment into a big and jubilant musical feast.

Money Back Guarantee We're so convinced you'll love this show, we'll give you a money back guarantee. Buy a ticket for the show and if you hate it in the first 15 minutes, just go to our Box Office and ask for a refund, no questions asked.

“Another rattling good group from Québéc. They’ve produced a recording of foot-tapping tunes & evocative songs which can hold its head up anywhere good music is played” (Living Tradition)

"This is bracing stuff, replete with gorgeous three-part harmony singing and powerful instrumental work on flute, violin, guitar and fretless bass – not to mention the high-energy tapping feet of Pascal Gemme." (Hot Press)
