Ariell – Bourdon – Chicoine

“Like at your local diner, Thomas Ariell, Patrick Bourdon, and Tom Chicoine are offering a deal that will leave no one hungry.
3 for 1: Three pies join forces and accompany each other to offer you an All Dressed evening. A full band collective providing the perfect evening to discover the best of Quebec’s alternative country music. All this in a single show and for the price of a single show!”

Tom Chicoine – Divertir. After releasing Les vapeurs qui nous font avancer (2021), Moteur Super Sport (2023), which received nominations at the ADISQ Gala and the GAMIQ in the country categories and took him to the Francos, the Festival de la chanson de Tadoussac, the Festival western de Saint-Tite, and Lasso Montréal, his latest album, Divertir, released in late fall 2025, is already generating buzz and securing a spot on several year-end lists.

Thomas Ariell – Hailing from the remote Abitibi region, this singer-songwriter offers a country/folk sound that blends urban energy with boreal roots. After gaining recognition at Ma Première Place des Arts, the FRIMAT showcase, and the Granby International Song Festival in 2025, Thomas Ariell kicks off 2026 with a new EP entitled “Entre deux eaux” (Between Two Waters), a work deeply influenced by his native region. He is also the founder of Soirées Boomtown, a monthly event highlighting emerging artists in Montreal.

Patrick Bourdon – Whether on stage or leaning against the bar, Patrick Bourdon charms with his authenticity. Sometimes funny, sometimes touching, his catchy country-folk melodies feature simple yet frank lyrics that poeticize the banality of everyday life, making it a little less ordinary. Delivering his songs with infectious good humor, Patrick perfectly balances tenderness, humor, and depth both in his lyrics and when he connects with the audience.
