It takes a special blend of musical flair to create memorable songs of yesteryear! Songs with a hint of contemporary — dosed with uncontrolled laughter, deep-rooted couplets and sudden, impromptu shifts — that speak to familiar rhythms of the past. Welcome to the original musical stylings of De Temps Antan!

Since 2003, Éric Beaudry, André Brunet and Pierre-Luc Dupuis have been exploring and performing time-honoured melodies from the stomping grounds of Québec's musical past. Using fiddle, accordion, harmonica, guitar, bouzouki and a number of other instruments, these three virtuosos blend boundless energy with the unmistakable joie de vivre found only in traditional Québec music.
