P’tit Belliveau Talks About His New Album, Frogs, and Income Tax

Interview by Stephan Boissonneault

Additional Information

Jonah Guimond, better known in the music world as P’tit Belliveau, sent ruptures through the Francophone music industry last year when he announced that his upcoming third release would be independent and that he would be leaving the label, Bonsound.

Now, almost a year since that announcement, P’tit Belliveau is back with his third album, a self-titled epic that switches from hyper pop, bro-country, nu-metal, and more. Guimond let it be known that he made this album for himself and knows it will be polarizing among some of his fans.


At the same time, P’tit Belliveau has always been an artist who throws convention out the window, so some of the weirder moments on this album; like the wacky frog song trilogy, shouldn’t completely shock his fans.

We spoke to Guimond from his home in Clare, Nova Scotia, about his newfound independence, his love of frogs, working with FouKi on the song “Comfy,” and of course, Income Tax.
