History
The group formed in 1999.[3] The founding members were Veilleux, Planchette, Lemieux and guitarist Pascal Tessier.[4] They first signed a contract with Les Disques Passeport in 2003. They released their first album, Pop Culture,[1] in 2004 from the recording company Les Disques Passeport, a small company in Montreal, Quebec.
The band's second album, Nulle part ailleurs, was released in 2005.[5] Tessier left the band at about this time and bassist Éric Maheu joined.[5] The album spent over 100 weeks in the top twenty in the francophone top 100 chart.
After the band's fourth album, Le Vrai Monde, was released in 2011, the band went on a tour of festivals and theatres.[4]
Members
Veilleux, whose father played the accordion and the violin, himself started playing guitar and writing music at a young age. Blanchette also came from a family of musicians; he had in 1990 co-founded the metal music band Subversion. Lemieux studied blues and rock music at Cégep in Drummondville. Maheu, formerly of the band La Chicane, started with a solo career, and recorded commercials for Burger King.
