Savez-vous tricoter?

The last month I've been concert-crazy: we saw k.d. lang (phenomenal), Pink Martini (amazing), and last night, Tricot Machine (extraordinaire). Tricot Machine is a great new group from Québec who have raced up the charts with their self-titled debut album.



They played at the opening gala of the Quinzaine de la Francophonie, a two-week festival celebrating the French language all over New England.

We didn't get the fully orchestrated effect of their indie-folk-pop tunes last night, as they played only with piano and a few percussion instruments. But they sounded great, and even better, I got to chat with them after the show. Woo-hoo!

Check out their single, L'ours:
