Étienne Coppée and his band of love gather to sing the great classics of Joe Dassin, hoping the late singer can hear them from somewhere above. Expect soft moments and harmonies, as well as progressive rock, wild touches and new takes on songs everyone knows.
The audience is invited to stroll down the avenue with an open heart and feel like greeting anyone they meet. Velours Velours opens the evening.
On stage with Étienne Coppée are Flavie Melançon, Raphaël Pépin-Tanguay, Bruno St-Laurent, Arthur Bourdon-Durocher and Philippe Noël. Staging is by Myriam Sophie Deslauriers, assisted by Flavie Melançon, and lighting design is by Estelle Frenette-Vallières. The show takes place in the Salle Jean-Grimaldi.
