Les Flâneurs Les Flâneurs Guitarist Guillaume Jabbour and diatonic accordion player Harlan Johnson first came together in 2010 when Guillaume teamed up with Grouyan Gombo, a storied Montreal group Harlan founded more than a decade before. Numerous musical adventures, and seven years later, they again join forces, presenting original and traditional tunes that pay homage to the rich musical legacy of south west Louisiana. Both Guillaume and Harlan have steeped themselves in Cajun/Creole music through studies with such past and present Louisiana masters such as Sam Broussard, Steve Riley and Boisec Ardoin. Today the band features a sound that is direct, warm and groove focused, bridging the traditional and contemporary strains of a rich genre. Of late, the circle of "Les Flâneurs" has opened to feature a third element: the fiddle of Bill Gossage. With a musical culture that spans diverse styles while drawing upon deep roots in the Irish fiddle vernacular, Bill has long been a reputed member of the Montreal music community. He is also known across Canada for his work with the francophone Saskatchewan formation La Montagne Secrète. Louisiana Cajun culture has been recognized for its ability to resist, persist and celebrate life despite adversity. We invite you to join Les Flâneurs in experiencing a rich and evolving musical language.
