The National Parcs (Montreal)
“Totally original, and thoroughly invigorating.” T’cha Dunlevy, The Gazette
The National Parcs, veterans of Montreal's celebrated Freeworm, have gone into the wild and come back with a look and sound that's as big as the world.
The three young men were born in the backwoods of Quebec, Malawi and B.C., but bred on Montreal streets buzzing with the noise of every nation on earth. For this groundbreaking CD/DVD album, they strip back down to basics, returning to their roots in the bush. Their cameras and microphones are trained on the trackless woods around them, but their ears have been trained on Grime and Hip Hop, Afrobeat and Baile Funk, American Spirituals and Malian Blues.
They will be at the Escales Improbables to offer an acoustic performance during the Musical Nap times, as well as during the night at the Shed 16 Labyrinth for an invigorating and refreshing act.
