We're very excited to announce that we have a new video out in the world, and we'd love for you to check it out. "Vive l'Acadie!" is the title track from our new album, which will be released in June, and it's the second single that we've released so far.
Big thanks to Wolfe's Neck Farm for providing the amazing location, to Cindy and the Oshima Brothers and the other traditional Acadian dancers who came out to show us all the ropes, to Nate Eldridge, Ogden-Media, Acadia UAV and Nicholas Briggs for the fine cinematography, and to everyone else who came out for the afternoon. It was a beautiful day - it was actually the day of the big eclipse - and we had a wonderful time. We'd also like to thank Relix for the video premier - that was a real cool surprise for us.
Lyrics are posted below for anyone interested. Check it out:
Lyrics - "Vive l'Acadie!"
Long live l’humanite
Long live the song
Long live the drinkin’ and the dancin’ on the lawn
Long live your uncles
And long live memere
And long live this Saturday night just soarin’ through the air
With them French Canadian girls
And that French Canadian music’s alright
Alright by me
And long live de Tocqueville
And long live Thoreau
And long live Jack Kerouac and Montesquieu
And long live Evangeline
Long live the coast
Long live the poutine
And long live the toast
And long live them French Canadian girls
And that French Canadian music’s alright
Alright by me
Yeah long live them French Canadian girls
And that French Canadian music’s alright
Alright by me
Vive l’Acadie!
Vive l’Acadie!
Vive l’Acadie!
Vive l’Acadie
