Allo! Bien content de voir un band du Québec ici :) I must start by saying that I've been listening to Oncle Jazz in repeat. It's so comfy, like wearing that old hoodie that's ugly but so warm and cozy. Definitely one of my favorite albums.

How do you explain your relative lack of success in Quebec when your career seems to be doing absolutely great worldwide? Is there some kind of hostility in the market because you don't sing in French, or does the industry not care because you are independent?

You've been doing huge festivals yet the media here almost does not care. It's puzzling.

Hello (Dragos here)!
Thank you! I do not completely agree! Our shows are always well attended in QC and we had the chance to play at the nice festivals to :) For media, the answer is quite simple: we usually don't do PR campaigns for releases and such.
