Chic Gamine, the Canadian vocal powerhouse, emerged on the music scene with an invigorating blend of soul, Motown-infused beats, and a touch of French pop, captivating audiences with their magnetic harmonies and infectious energy. The group originated in 2007, formed by vocalists Annick Bremault, Andrina Turenne, Alexa Dirks (later known as Begonia), and drummer Sacha Daoud. These artists, hailing from the vibrant Francophone communities of Winnipeg and Montreal, solidified their unique sound with the addition of Ariane Jean, bridging the gaps between girl-group doo-wop, rock, and R&B.
Chic Gamine's self-titled debut album introduced their distinctive style, paving the way for a series of compelling musical narratives with "City City" and further evolution with "Closer," which earned them a Juno Award in 2011 for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year: Group. By the time they released "Light a Match" in 2015, their sound had matured to encapsulate even more depth and rhythm, showcasing their versatility and dynamic musicianship. Their ability to infuse soulful vibes into holiday music was evident with their festive offering, "Christmas, Vol. 1." Throughout their career, Chic Gamine charmed listeners with their siren-like voices, sophisticated lyricism, and a warm, enthralling stage presence that left an indelible mark on the Canadian music scene before the members pursued solo projects.
