La Famille Léger


La Famille Léger
Born of a time when family and friends would gather in the warmth of the kitchens of Quebec and New Brunswick to play and dance time-honored tunes together, La Famille Léger keeps that rich tradition vitally alive. The Légers play the dancing music of French Canada – the music handed down through generations in the New World, the music of back porches and kitchen parties. Patriarch Louis Léger leads the band on the one-row melodeon (a type of button accordion), son Devon plays fiddle and Devon’s wife, Dejah is on piano. This proudly “old school” family band will have your own family dancing and joining in on the fun”
“In Quebec and New Brunswick, there was a time when family and friends gathered in the kitchen to make music, sing and dance. The Léger family keeps this rich tradition of the good old days alive. The Légers play the dance music of French Canada, melodies passed down from generation to generation in the New World and tunes to celebrate on the veranda or in the kitchen. This “old school” family is sure to entertain and get the whole family dancing!
