Event Description

Le Groupe Swing (LGS), formerly known as Swing, is a Canadian neo-trad band specializing in Franco-Ontarian music. The band, made up of Michel Bénac and Jean-Philippe Goulet, blends traditional Franco-Canadian folk songs with urban influences such as pop, electronic, and hip-hop.
Celebrating 25 years of music in 2024, LGS remains one of the most popular and high-energy groups around, constantly reinventing themselves album after album. Nominated at the ADISQ Gala and the JUNO Awards, and winners of 13 Trille Or awards, LGS delivers their own brand of feel-good urban pop—drawing inspiration from '90s American pop vibes all the way to today's EDM beats.

Known for their explosive and festive live shows, LGS is often compared to that long-awaited weekend feeling you've been counting down to since 9 a.m. Monday morning. On stage, LGS brings the FUN back to the Francophone scene with their contagious energy.

The trio, joined by dancers, delivers a jolt of “good vibes” to everyone in the crowd—like an energy drink with wings. Whether you're young or just young at heart, anywhere in the world, LGS will get you moving!

Le Groupe Swing (LGS), anciennement appelé Swing, est un groupe néo-trad canadien de musique franco-ontarienne. Le groupe, composé de Michel Bénac et Jean-Philippe Goulet, mélange la chanson folklorique franco-canadienne à des influences urbaines comme le pop, l'électronique et le hip-hop.
Célébrant leurs 25 ans de carrière en 2024, LGS reste un des groupes les plus populaire et festif en se réinventant albums après albums. Nommé au gala de l’ADISQ, aux JUNO et récipiendaire de 13 prix Trille Or, LGS propose une pop urbaine “FEEL GOOD” bien à eux, inspirée des sonorités pop américaines des années 90 en passant par le EDM d’aujourd’hui.

Connu pour ses concerts ultra festifs et énergisants, LGS est souvent comparé à l'arrivée du week-end que vous attendez depuis lundi matin 9h ! En concert, LGS ramène le FUN dans la francophonie avec son énergie contagieuse.

Le trio, accompagné de danseurs, donne une dose de "good vibes" à tous ceux qui sont présents, comme une boisson énergétique qui vous donne des ailes. Que vous soyez jeune ou presque, partout sur la planète, LGS vous fera bouger!
