Names? Perhaps Paul Piché, Richard Séguin or Claude Dubois? Hmm gravel truck with transmission problems.. perhaps Plume Latraverse or Robert Charlebois? I'm trying to figure out who you believe to be the archetype of the Québec songster. I'd enjoy a name.
Perhaps it simply has to do with your inability to keep up with the new trends? Should I still think of The Guess Who when any allusion is made to English Canadian music or should I try to look a bit beyond what has been done since, say, I don't know, the 80s?
I'll just assume you have no understanding of either the Québec cultural scene, nor the Italian one.
