Joane Hétu

Joane Hétu

Joane Hétu has been played on NTS in shows including GEORGIA: All Kind Music, featured first on 18 February 2016. Songs played include L’Orage.

Since the early 80’s, throughout an unusual career, Joane Hétu has carved her own place on the Canadian creative music scene.

After exploring the avant-garde rock with groups like Wondeur Brass, Justine and Les Poules, Joane has been more and more focusing on abstract composition in works that combine text, texture and vocal experiments. In recent years, she also began to create improvisation structures that have been performed in Italy and Canada, by small groups of improvisers or by the Ensemble SuperMusique, in which she plays.

She has participated in a number of performances combining improv music and dance or music and video art.

Parallel to her musical activities, Joane Hétu has been a member of the Ambiances Magnétiques label since 1985, co-director since early 80’s of the concert production company Productions SuperMusique, and president of the DAME record label and distribution service, which she founded in 1991.
