Trad Québécois is a vibrant and rootsy music genre originating from Quebec, Canada, characterized by lively fiddle melodies, driving accordion rhythms, and energetic foot-stomping percussion. Emerging in the 17th century, it evolved from traditional French and Scottish folk music, influenced by the province's cultural heritage. During the 1960s and 1970s, the genre gained popularity, particularly among Quebec's nationalist movement, as a symbol of cultural identity and resistance. Trad Québécois is marked by its call-and-response vocal style, often featuring harmonized singing and storytelling through lyrics. Its unique blend of folk, Celtic, and French-Canadian elements sets it apart from similar styles, such as Irish and Scottish folk. With its infectious energy and rich cultural significance, Trad Québécois continues to thrive, inspiring new generations of musicians and audiences alike.
