Hugo Blouin

Born: August 10, 1983

Montreal bassist and composer Hugo Blouin writes songs using the musicality of the spoken word. His two Charbonneau ou les valeurs à' bonne place albums, rendering a tongue-in-cheek jazz homage to a Quebec inquiry commission on organized crime, political funding and the construction industry, received notable praise and attention, both at home and abroad.

Hugo Blouin plays with the band L’abîme and the Christine Tassan Quintet, as well as with poet Veronique Bachand in “Avec le rire de ma grand-mère”. Blouin has also toured with bands MAZ (folk, official selection at WOMEX) and Brasser Brassens (tribute to French songwriter Georges Brassens)
