From time to time, I will be doing a piece on this blog selecting a band each week (or whenever I have time to do so) . I select a band I believe is the "Beer Pick of the Week".
This week's pick is Quebecois upbeat franco-pop musician Damien Robitaille.
Robitaille is virtually unheard of outside of Quebec and Franco-Ontario. He released his first album in 2006 titled L'homme qui me ressemble (The Man Who Looks Like Me). The music off of this album is upbeat and has a sort of catchy tone that even people who speak only English can get addicted to.
Following his album release in 2006, he was the featured artist of a podcast done by Bande a part, where they would ask him various questions, and play a few tracks from his album. His music is currently heard in Quebec, but sooner or later his music will become popular in English Canada, thanks to the explode of French music success of various Franco musicians such as Malajube and Les Trois Accords.
