La Volée D’Castors
La Volée d’Castors (A Flock of Beavers) is a Quebec folk music group formed in 1993. Since the end of the ’90s they have gained a lot of fame in Quebec and internationally, also have toured through 15 countries..
It’s actually my favorite Folk Quebecois band.. They have a unique energy and formidable arrangements on their recordings.. if you like this sort of music and still don’t know them, check some great videos:

Merci Beaucoup!!
My mistake..
Ops…
I mean.. the video above is a set of JIGS!! … That’s the fourth track of this recording.. But there is also a great reel: Les Cinq Jumelles/Dionne is one of my favorite reels!
Both videos you posted feature reels, you were correct in the first place
They are one of my favorite bands as well….and, I’m glad to see they recorded ‘La Belle Mere Enragee’, one of my favorite reels….
Thanks vonnieestes!
Just uploaded this tune!
