About us

In less than three years, singer-songwriter Francis Degrandpré has gone from a fireside friend to an accomplished performer who is bringing crowds to their feet across the province. With a unique French-language new country sound and a deep, gravelly voice that has nothing to envy the greatest country artists, Francis stands out on the Quebec music scene with his unifying themes of hunting, fishing, nature and good times with friends.

Francis is now making country fans sing along by the thousands with his own songs, and his second album Se laisser aller, released in September 2024, promises to take his music even further!

In 2023, he won the Félix award for Country Album of the Year at ADISQ, and has been honored three times at the Gala Country for Song of the Year, Contemporary Country Album and Songwriter of the Year.
