Karl Tremblay: Guy Nantel gives a heartfelt shout-out to Canada’s music scene – Canada Boosts

For the previous 24 hours or so, the demise of Karl Tremblay has monopolized media consideration. The entire of Quebec is in mourning, prompting François Legault to supply the Cowboys Fringants singer a state funeral.

That’s if the household desires it, in fact.

One of many testimonials that stood out for me was that of Man Nantel. The comic, who is clearly additionally identified for his political convictions, marked the demise of Karl Tremblay with a message on social networks.

However not like many different messages, he wasn’t content material to easily say that it was unhappy: he proposed an answer to make sure that Karl Tremblay’s legacy could be as nice as doable.

On social networks, Nantel talked about that in current weeks, he confirmed up at Laval’s Place Bell and, within the third interval, realized that Quebec songs weren’t within the DJ’s rotation.

He laments the truth that Place Bell is not any totally different from another area in America: it performs American music.

He rightly wonders why the Rocket and Habs don’t play extra native songs. In spite of everything, the followers are principally locals who hear to those songs.

Yesterday, when the Rocket performed a Cowboys track, it sang greater than any American track.

Nantel is true: after we hear songs from right here, they arrive to us in a extra intense manner than when a track from elsewhere is performed. That’s regular, because it’s our tradition.

It’s not the accountability of groups exterior Quebec to advertise music from right here. And as Man Nantel says, you don’t essentially have to attend for a demise to do it.

And along with the followers, there are the gamers who love the Cowboys. The Rocket is stuffed with Quebecers, and the Canadiens (notably David Savard, Rafaël Harvey-Pinard and Samuel Montembeault) are followers.

Savard was even on the present on the Plains this summer season, as Jean-François Chaumont tells us. #FEQ

Within the context of a Canadiens recreation, which is below reconstruction, I’m positive that listening to extra songs from right here could be slightly deal with for followers who generally don’t have a lot to get their enamel into.

At one level, a man will get irritated at listening to Narco play when a time-out is known as on the finish of a recreation.
