Live Music – LGS (Le Groupe Swing) ~ Francophone

Le Groupe Swing (LGS), formerly known as Swing, is a Canadian neo-trad band specializing in Franco-Ontarian music. The band, made up of Michel Bénac and Jean-Philippe Goulet, blends traditional Franco-Canadian folk songs with urban influences such as pop, electronic, and hip-hop.

Celebrating 25 years of music in 2024, LGS remains one of the most popular and high-energy groups around, constantly reinventing themselves album after album. Nominated at the ADISQ Gala and the JUNO Awards, and winners of 13 Trille Or awards, LGS delivers their own brand of feel-good urban pop—drawing inspiration from ’90s American pop vibes all the way to today’s EDM beats.

Known for their explosive and festive live shows, LGS is often compared to that long-awaited weekend feeling you’ve been counting down to since 9 a.m. Monday morning. On stage, LGS brings the FUN back to the Francophone scene with their contagious energy.
