Les Nus

**Les Nus** is a Montreal-based indie folk duo known for their hauntingly beautiful acoustic soundscapes and poetic French lyrics. Formed in the late 2010s by multi-instrumentalists Éloïse Breton and Gabriel Leclerc, the pair carved out a niche with their minimalist arrangements and raw, emotionally charged performances. Their music often explores themes of existential reflection, love, and the passage of time, as heard in recent releases like *Les ravages du temps* and the introspective *Enfer et Paradis*.

With a DIY ethos and a flair for storytelling, Les Nus built a loyal following through intimate live shows and stripped-back recordings that emphasize their vocal harmonies and delicate guitar work. Their self-titled track *Les nus* encapsulates their signature blend of vulnerability and atmospheric folk, cementing their reputation as torchbearers of Quebec’s indie scene. While they keep their personal lives private, their artistry speaks loudly through evocative lyrics and a sound that feels both timeless and refreshingly modern.
