Programming Change: Menoncle Jason will now be performing on the Capitol Theatre stage.
In partnership with l'Université de Moncton, Monument-Lefebvre Theatre, the Dieppe Arts and Culture Centre and Coup de cœur Francophone, the Capitol Theatre is pleased to participate with these venues to present a show with a very unique concept.
Under the artistic direction of Kevin McIntyre, you are invited to an in-person show that will connect the audiences of multiple venues on the same evening. See an artist in person and watch the other artists, as well as the audiences of the other theatres, LIVE on a giant screen throughout the evening.
On the Capitol Theatre stage
P’tit Belliveau accompanied by Adam Coulsting on bass.
Hailing from Baie-Ste-Marie, Nova Scotia, P’tit Belliveau grew up in an insular francophone community surrounded by anglophones. Nevertheless, he made himself known at the 2019 Francouvertes, a French-language music contest, making it to the finals alongside O.G.B. and Alex Burger. For nearly a year now he has lived in Moncton, New Brunswick, where he still embraces his hometown’s sense of community. Lakes, fishing and nature reside at the heart of the singer-songwriter’s universe.
Music took root in his heart thanks to Baie-Ste-Marie’s local community radio station, where he gathered the first snippets of what would become his style. They often played DIY songs, which influenced P’tit Belliveau’s own lo-fi sounds, along with his desire to put drum machines front and center in folk/bluegrass songs.
P’tit Belliveau is the guy-next-door who will spin a tale about everyday life like nobody else. The singer-songwriter stands out with his unique brand of electro-inspired country-folk music and his cassette tape aesthetic.
Menoncle Jason (Originally at Université de Moncton)
Jason LeBlanc, aka Menoncle Jason, is a constantly-creating multi-instrumentalist, singer and songwriter. He finds his inspiration in the reality of life in the countryside. With a touch of humor and his baritone voice, he sings songs that deal with somewhat outlawed activities, but never criminal, and always inspired by the regional themes of Southeastern New Brunswick, his home. Jason is a great guitarist and the stories he writes are sure to touch people! The show will be full band.
Band composition:
Menoncle Jason: Lead vocals, acoustic guitar
Éloi: electric guitar, lap steel, choir
