Les Charbonniers De L'Enfer (The little coal miners from Hell) are five superb singers (two of whom have tenured with the famed "La Bouttine Souriante") from Canada who have unearthed gems of Quebecois folk music and given them inspired a capella interpretations. They have been burning up the festival circuit north of the border and gaining loyal fans for the past ten years. [ more ]
These guys are so fun-their video on Link TV is what I saw first, really fine harmony. Need more of their music to download.

Just saw these guys perform at the "Beyond the Border" story-telling festival, and they were superb. One of the highlights. Great tight harmonies, humour and impressive rhythm. Would recommend you hear them, and if possible see them perform.
Formidable! ces charbonniers

I've just bought their album Wo. Musically it is superb and also a great reviver of spirits. I also heard them at Beyond the Border, and now want to buy their other albums. Most highly recommended, a true "high" listening to them.
