Background notes

Archive material and source history

Ferland Jean-Pierre came up in Saint-Fabien, Quebec, in the 1940s, and started writing songs early. He was listening to people like Pete Seeger and Jacques Brel. Things really took off for him in 1969 with the album 'À c't'heure,' which had the title track that became a kind of standard. That song, along with others like 'À demain' and 'Braves fous,' gave him a national profile in Canada's folk scene.

He's played with other Quebec artists over time, including Pauline Julien and Gilles Vigneault.

Jean-Pierre's songs, many drawn from personal experience, have been translated and covered by other musicians. In 2007, he received the Governor General's Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Artistic Achievement.
