Additional Information
Ponteix, real name Mario Lepage, grew up in the French-speaking village of St-Denis, Saskatchewan. His album Le canadien errant, released in February, recounts his personal journey from Western Canada to Montreal, where he now lives. Make no mistake: Ponteix embraces very modern sounds, sometimes reminiscent of Karkwa. His latest album was co-produced by Louis- Jean Cormier. Ponteix will be performing a free concert at the Francofolies on Thursday June 19, at 6 p.m. on the Loto-Quebec stage. Michel Labrecque spoke with Mario Lepage for PAN M 360.
