Reply:Anais has an accent on the second a (two periods over the a) and is actually Hebrew. It means Graceful, and is pronounced ah-NYE-us.


Some other ideas, if you're going for the French sound, might be Colette, Olivia, Cachet (pro. cash-ay), Adrienne (though it's actually Greek in root, it has a French spelling), or Joelle.

Can you name some good French language artists/bands to listen to from Quebec?

Hey,





I'm into most types of music, except for trance and electro, and it would be great if you could recommend me some artists to listen to so that I can familiarise myself with the French Canadian accent.





Many thanks to you all! :)

Daniel B茅langer, Sylvain Cossette, Ariane Moffatt, Marie-脡laine Thibert





For a good introduction to Quebec music, try the Quebec album on Putumayo records. http://www.putumayo.com/en/catalog_item....
Reply:I don't listen to a lot of french music or anything, but a friend of mine's brother is a french singer and I like his goofy style. Damien Robitaille. He's actually from small town Lafontain in ON but now lives in Quebec.

Reply:If you want to familiarize with the accent, try


les cowboys fringants


Ka茂n


maybe Malajube


Mes a茂eux


Jean Leloup


Les colocs





and Much more but most of the time, if they dont make traditional music, they loose the Qu茅bec accent. It becomes international french in the songs...
