1 July 2011, 20:25 / 21:15 Karkwa - Trafalgar Square
Karkwa formed in 1998 and made themselves heard the next year, when the five music die-hards performed at the Cégeps en spectacle contest in Montreal and caught the eye of the Office franco-québécois pour la jeunesse, a France-Quebec youth exchange organization which invited them to perform at the Printemps du Québec cultural expo in Paris.

Shortly after the band turned their attentions to separate projects and not until 2001 did Karkwa truly step back on the scene, making it to the final round at the 7th Francouvertes music competition. Their fourth album, Les Chemins de Verre, (The Glass Paths), released in 2010 was recorded in part at La Frette studios in Paris – an inspirational venue dating from the 19th century, it became the sixth member of the band as they returned there time and again during their French tour. A lively collection based on spontaneous impulses of creativity, Les Chemins de Verre was put together without preproduction for a more organic and impressionist sound.
