   ANN: Genticorum (Canada) @ The Bendigo F

   From: NOSPAMsfdbgo@aapt.net.au   
      
   Genticorum are fast becoming one of the most sought-after proponents   
   of Quebecois musical culture, firmly rooted in the soil of their   
   native land.   
      
   The energetic and original traditional 'power trio' also incorporates   
   the dynamism of today's North American and European folk cultures in   
   their music. Weaving wooden flute, fiddle, acoustic guitar, jaw harp,   
   bass and foot percussion with strong vocal harmonies, they offer a   
   blend of traditional songs and tunes as well as original compositions.   
      
   Their distinctive sound, sense of humour and stage presence make them   
   a supreme crowd pleaser.   
      
   Since their debut in 2000, Genticorum has forged a solid place for   
   itself on the folk and world music circuit, playing festivals,   
   concerts and dances. Their sophomore album 'Malins Plaisirs' won the   
   Canadian Folk Music Award 2005 in the "Best Ensemble" category and was   
   nominated for JUNO (Canada) and Felix (Quebec) Awards. Their recent   
   success in England, Scotland, Scandinavia, Germany, Malaysia, Israel,   
   Egypt, Australia and New Zealand forecast a sparkling international   
   career for our slightly naughty 'bons vivants'.
