Colleen Power en français 

Le mois de juin est un mois spécial pour Colleen, avec deux concerts en français à son agenda chargé.

Le 18 juin à 18 h 30, c’est la deuxième édition de la Fête de la Musique à Corner Brook. Colleen partagera la scène avec le duo incroyable de Bernard et Robert Félix et l’auteur-compositeur-interprète dynamique Liz Fagan dans le magnifique parc Margaret Bowater lors d’un concert gratuit, présenté par Le Coin Franco.

ET – Le 25 juin 2022, sortez votre drapeau fleurdelisé ! Joignez-vous à la communauté francophone de St John’s pour un événement visant à célébrer la Fête de la Saint-Jean-Baptiste, la journée nationale de célébration des cultures québécoise et francophone à travers le pays.

Spirit of Newfoundland organisera un concert au magnifique Masonic Theatre, avec trois des meilleurs artistes de la province qui chanteront dans la langue de l’amour. Le spectacle mettra en vedette Adrian House, finaliste actuel du prestigieux Gala de la Chanson de Caraquet, accompagné de son fabuleux House Band ; Les Paumés du Petit Matin, avec le dynamique auteur-compositeur-interprète québécois Frédéric Blouin et Frank Fusari à l’accordéon ; et Colleen Power, la première terre-neuvienne à sortir un album de chansons originales en français.

Frédéric Blouin, originaire du Québec souligne l’importance de la Fête de la Saint- Jean-Baptiste : “C’est vraiment une journée spéciale. La communauté francophone en Amérique est assez restreinte, et donc à sa façon, unique et mérite d’être célébrée. J’ai assisté à quelques reprises aux célébrations de Montréal et de Québec, et c’était magique.”

Avez-vous vraiment besoin de raison supplémentaire pour célébrer la musique et la culture francophones ? Si oui, sachez qu’il y aura des prix de présence et un bar payant. Ce sera une fête inoubliable !

Fête de la Saint-Jean à St. John’s

Spirit of Newfoundland, 6, rue Cathedral

Le 25 juin, de 20 h à 23 h

Prix d’entrée – 20 $ www.spiritofnewfoundland.com. Concert pour public de tous âges.

Une initiative du ministère du Patrimoine canadien, de l’Association communautaire francophone de Saint-Jean (ACFSJ) et de la Fédération des francophones de Terre- Neuve et du Labrador (FFTNL).

Over the past year or so, I’ve been working hard to find copies of my music videos that were deleted from Youtube. I was only left with deteriorated versions of many videos. With many thanks to Bern Hammond of NIFCO, I have been able to re-upload high quality versions of *some of these missing videos to my Youtube channel.
Here’s the link to my Youtube channel. Have a look, and please subscribe:
All the best in the New Year!
XO
Colleen
P.S. I will have some news about an online show soon, as undoubtedly, our upcoming shows in the near future will be cancelled. I want to be able to do live shows on Youtube, so your subscriptions would really help! Onward and upward through the Covid!

Music Video for ‘Broken Mirror’ from ‘Tales From Downtown West’

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Thursday, October 21, 2021

Award-winning Newfoundland & Labrador singer/songwriter Colleen Power has released the music video for ‘Broken Mirror’, from ‘Tales From Downtown West’.

Just last week, Colleen received a 2021 MusicNL nomination for Folk/Roots Artist of the Year for the album.

Colleen worked with Centre City Media and Film Productions on this video, which was shot in St. John’s in the woods near Pippy Park. The video was launched at midnight, coinciding with the full Hunter’s moon.

Screen Shot 2021-10-20 at 6.33.04 PM

She says, “Broken Mirror is a song about overcoming obstacles and putting mistakes in the past, where they belong. I wanted to release this just before Hallowe’en. It’s pretty witchy, in a good witch kinda way. It was a fluke that the launch happened with a full moon in the sky, which is an important element in the story itself.”

You can watch the video on Colleen’s Youtube Page: Colleen Power – Broken Mirror
