Québécois folk refers to the traditional music and cultural practices of the people from Quebec, a province in Canada. This genre often features instruments like the fiddle, accordion, and guitar, and is characterized by lively rhythms and storytelling lyrics that reflect the region's history and daily life. The folk music of Quebec is deeply influenced by French heritage, as well as Indigenous cultures and Irish immigration. Festivals, such as the Festival de musique folklorique de Québec, celebrate this rich tradition, bringing together musicians and dancers to share and preserve their cultural identity through performance and community gatherings.
