Martin Léon and Lily Frost Come Together for CHANSONGS in Toronto
If there is one thing that all Canadians share, it is our close relationship with the songs that have defined our landscape and character. That is the idea behind Chansongs, a series of rendezvous bringing together songwriters who represent the best of the Montreal and Toronto music scenes.
Curated and hosted by Dominique Denis, Artistic Director at Alliance Française, these bilingual soirées combine music and personal stories to celebrate the craft of songwriting. The Conservatory Theatre's intimate setting will provide the audience a chance to interact in both languages with the artists.
On Friday, April 19, Montreal-based singer-songwriter Martin Léon will share the stage for the first time with his Toronto counterpart Lily Frost. A master of slinky and hypnotic grooves, Martin is also a tireless traveler who draws inspiration from the images and sounds gathered on his global journey. As for Lily, she has applied her flawless pop smarts to an ever-expanding body of work in which the personal and the universal are in constant dialogue.
These great artists will swap stories and professional secrets, reminding us that the love of songs - and the desire to share them - is the surest way to bridge the gap between our so-called solitudes.
Chansongs, part of The Royal Conservatory's Montréal à Toronto concert series, is presented in association with the Songwriters Association of Canada.
