Les Grands Hurleurs performs a free, outdoor concert from 8 to 9:30 p.m., Thursday, Aug. 9 at the Levitt Pavilion in Westport.
Here’s the announcement from Levitt Pavilion:
The Two-time Felix Award-winning trio from Quebec are touring with their latest award-winning album.
Traditional music flirts with classical, Manouche, electronica, and folk! The Quebec-based Les Grands Hurleurs is on the road with its ¾ Fort show inspired by the repertoire of its newest award-winning CD of original, open-minded music, very much alive yet respectful of its roots.
Since its inception in 2009, Les Grands Hurleurs have earned a solid reputation, accumulating a lot of experience in countless Quebec venues, international stages (Czech Republic, France, Germany, Spain, Switzerland, the USA) and on major events including recently 2017 Canada Day in Victoria, & 2017 Canada Summer Games Winnipeg.
