Serge Monette présente Un gars de la Vallée

La Slague is pleased to announce a wonderful partnership as part of French Fest, with the Fédération des aînés et des retraités francophones de l’Ontario (FARFO), Le Rendez-vous de Vallée Est, and the Centre de santé communautaire du Grand Sudbury.


Serge Monette
With his sixth album, *Un gars de la Vallée*, Monette returns to his roots. He tells stories of the North, families, the land, the mines, the roads, memories, and that Franco-Ontarian identity forged between French and English.

At the heart of the show: Tarois, this unique language that blends, transforms, and celebrates the local French. A language long mocked, but one that is now becoming a true creative force.

On stage, the songs from *Un gars de la Vallée* come to life in a world of folk, country, and roots music, driven by personal stories that resonate with a collective memory. Monette sings about ordinary people, workers, families, and those who have built their lives with their hands, their courage, and their dreams.

La Slague's Evolution

La Slague is a Francophone concert promotion agency in Greater Sudbury, Ontario. Its history extends back to the 60’s and 70’s, when La Slague presented performers such as Félix Leclerc, Jean-Pierre Ferland, Cano, Renée Claude, Harmonium and Offenbach. La Slague went dormant for a time in the 1990s, but it roared back to life in 2006 as part of the Carrefour francophone’s programming.
