Scotland’s premier folk music platform, Showcase Scotland Expo, and its host festival Celtic Connections, have officially unveiled the six outstanding artists who will represent Québec at Showcase Scotland 2026. Bon Débarras are thrilled to be part of it, along with the artists Cécilia, É.T.É., Germaine, La Déferlance and Paruline. Bon Débarras will also present a show on January 22 at Celtic Connections, one of the most important folk festivals in the United-Kingdom.

Good news: we just won an Opus Award for our performance for young audiences “J’m’en viens chez vous!”. Dominic and Véronique attended the Gala, organized by the “Conseil québécois de la musique”, with Marie Eve Larivière our fabulous stage director. 60 shows were presented so far to thousands of students and families all over Québec. A wonderful adventure that continues to go on!

After 3 nominations for the album, it’s now the show J’m’en viens chez vous! that grabs the honor! We are finalist at the Opus Awards Gala, organized by the Conseil québécois de la musique, in the category Production de l'année jeune public.
The winners will be announced on February 2, 2025.

This fall is full of good news for us! Our album J’m’en viens chez vous! is in nomination at the GAMIQ (Gala alternatif de la musique indépendante du Québec) in the Trad category and at the Canadian Folk Music Awards in the category Children’s Album of the Year.
The GAMIQ winners will be announced on December 1st and the Canadian Folk Music Awards will take place in April 2025.
