About Veranda
Veranda is a Montréal band led by actress and songwriter Catherine-Audrey Lachapelle and multi-instrumentalist Léandre Joly-Pelletier. They have played together since 2018. Their original songs, sung in French and English, draw on Appalachian bluegrass, classic country, contemporary folk and Québec traditions.
Lachapelle plays guitar and Joly-Pelletier plays mandolin, with banjo also in the mix. On stage and in the studio they work with Kieran Poile on fiddle and podorythmie and Johnny Slapper on double bass, and the show goes out as a duo, trio or quartet.
Their first EP, Woodland Waltz, came out in 2018. Yodel Bleu followed in 2020 and won Best Country Album or EP at the GAMIQ. Their first full-length album, Là-bas (2022), was nominated at the ADISQ Awards and the Canadian Folk Music Awards, and a self-titled second album came out in 2026. The band has played more than 300 shows in Canada, France, Belgium and Switzerland.
