Experience Le Caribou Volant live on July 7th

Le Caribou Volant is scheduled to perform at L’Arrache-cœur in Avignon, France on July 7th, 2026. The band is recognized for a distinctive musical style blending traditional Québécois folk music with elements of punk rock, jazz, and bluegrass. Their performances are characterized by energetic instrumentation – often featuring fiddle, guitar, bass, and accordion – alongside close vocal harmonies and a lively stage presence. They frequently incorporate original compositions alongside reinterpretations of classic French-Canadian songs.

L’Arrache-cœur is a well-known venue in Avignon, historically significant as a pillar of the city’s alternative music scene. Established in 1983, it initially functioned as a squat before becoming a legally recognized concert hall and cultural center. The space maintains a deliberately raw and intimate atmosphere, known for hosting a diverse range of artists spanning rock, punk, chanson française, and world music. It has consistently supported both emerging and established acts throughout its history and remains an important location during the annual Avignon Theatre Festival, offering a contrasting program to the festival's more mainstream productions. The venue is known for its commitment to independent artistic expression.
