Antoine Pigeon-Bourque  

Description

Born in Verchères, Antoine grew up along the St. Lawrence in a musical family, immersed in Québécois traditional music. He began piano at a young age and took up the accordion at 16. A graduate of the Université de Montréal in classical accordion, he blends technical mastery with a broad musical curiosity, spanning classical, Irish, Breton, musette, and Balkan styles. Since 2010, he has toured Canada and the U.S. with his father, Benoit Bourque, in Bourque Émissaires. He also plays with Saligaude, fusing trad with pop and jazz, and Brise-Glace, exploring maritime songs from Europe and North America.
