Live Music
Florets / Ethan Mitchell
at LIVE! on Elgin
Florets:
Hailing from the Eastern Townships region of Québec, Florets is an instrumental ensemble formed by Claire Leslie-Turnbull (flute), Zacharie Bachand (guitar), and Sebastien Bachand (upright bass). Bridging the rich heritages of traditional and classical music, the ensemble shares both timeless and recent compositions. Reflecting the Eastern Townships’ history, the trio draws inspiration and repertoire from the French Canadian, Irish, and Scottish cultures that met in this area–traditions that happen to be perfectly mirrored in the group members’ cultural heritages. Florets arranges pieces with their own unique approach, bringing their love of classical, jazz, and folk music into conversation with the traditions that have shaped them.
Ethan Mitchell:
Ethan Mitchell is a folk musician who calls Ottawa his home. He writes silly little songs to help get things off his chest, and he loves sharing his music with friends, family, and the occasional stranger. He writes about cowboys, Canada, country folk, city folk, lonesome folk, and friendly folk. He gave up the cello to sing and play guitar, setting stories to song and every now and again yodelaying a couple hee-hoos. His songs range from tender love songs, toe tapping shuffles, and Country crooner power ballads, sung in a rich, timeless baritone punctuated by flashy bluegrass runs and intricate fingerpicking guitar.
