Mes souliers sont rouges is a French singing and music group.
history
They made their debut in 1991 in Caen , Normandy . Her repertoire consists mainly of humorous and traditional pieces that are inspired by the tradition of Québec . The first albums contain traditional, newly arranged chansons from Québec such as “La poule à Colin”, France such as “Vive la rose” or Acadiana such as “L'arbre est dans ses feuilles”. The newer albums, on the other hand, also contain numerous compositions of their own that are stylistically similar. The group has great stage experience and encourages the audience to dance and participate in the performance.
Since the departure of François Boros at the end of 2004, none of the founding members has been represented in the group. The latter gave a few concerts in 2005 under the name " Six pieds sur terre ". In 2011 it finally came to the reunion.
Consisting of five members who all sing, the group uses the guitar , violin , double bass , accordion , mandolin , banjo , trombone , percussion and voice as instruments (often as " a cappella ").
