Opening with Le Maudit Français

​

Born in France, Nico, aka Le Maudit Français is a multidisciplinary artist with a passion for music, photography and storytelling. He was first the singer of a Parisian alternative rock band for several years before resuming his musical journey in French from the south coast of Nova Scotia. Through what he calls neo-chanson, he blends Francophone song, poetry, visual arts, and contemporary influences to explore love, identity, art, and cultural dissonance in an English-dominated landscape.
