About

Join the kitchen party with Acadian French band Beauxmont!  Blending modern and traditional instruments, this six-member band from New Brunswick skillfully captivate their audience with the famous joie de vivre Acadians are so well known for.  While they definitely give a nod to the swampy sounds of their Cajun cousins from Louisiana, the sound is all Acadie. 

About Beauxmont

This six-member band, from all corners of Acadia, carries a rich heritage of musical traditions rooted in their longstanding generations. 

Blending modern and traditional instruments, they skillfully captivate their audience with this famous joie de vivre Acadians are so well known for. Beauxmont emerged through the tides of the Bay of Fundy, carrying songs and stories from a past intimately connected between Acadians and their Cajun cousins. A shared resilience evokes anthems of determination, pain, celebration and hope, all seasoned with a distinctly Acadian flavour and a Cajun country twist. Their music, often heard at the camp or in kitchen parties, from Memramcook to Grand Barachois, behind the church or after bingo at Edgar’s place, resonates with this group from New Brunswick. Wielding accordion, fiddle, washboard, guitars and drums with skill, they carved out a special place in traditional music, captivating their audience with a contagious energy that will ease your soul and let the good times roll. With a debut album drawing attention in the francophone commercial radio scene, the group is pleased to receive equal recognition in anglophone markets.
