In 2019, Louis Lafontaine (vocal, guitar), Catherine Laurin (violin), David Lemyre (guitar), Raphaël G. Longval (bass), and Patrick Bureau (drums) formed Pourpre, a progressive rock group based in Montreal, Québec. Their sound emerges like a massive vintage fresco, with meaty rock-style, weird idiosyncrasies, heartbreaking lyricism, and a hint of virtuosity coexisting. The band's musical style draws inspiration from the legendary British progressive rock acts of the early 1970s. They recorded their self-titled debut album in early 2023 at Studio Kampus and at Studio Madame Wood in Montreal. A physical CD and an online album were released on March 3, 2023. The line-up appearing on the album is Catherine Laurin (vocals, violin), Louis Lafontaine (vocals, guitar, percussion), Maude Fréchette (violin), Raphaël G. Longval (bass), Antony Joubert-Tremblay (drums, percussion), and Patrick Bureau (drums). "Pourpre" is a rather good debut album, and it's always a pleasure for these ears to listen to good progressive music from Québec, in French too!

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
