King Melrose

King Melrose will impress you with his talent, his contagious energy, his extravagance, and his unique flair. Since his first appearance onto the music scene of Québec, the singer-songwriter became a master in creating tunes that are timeless. With a new groove blending pop and soul, he succeeded to charm the people of Québec. King Melrose launched his first namesake album in 2014. The song Sauve-moi de toi gets him on the radio and since then, he never ceases to produce successful records. In 2015, he launched his second album Bleu and becomes number 1 on the charts with Tentation, Ça se danse, and Ne me laisse pas tomber. He is constantly solicited to be on the radio, to perform, and to offer his music for popular television shows. We call him to open for Francis Cabrel and Carla Bruni when they perform in Quebec.

Fireworks

To wrap up this special day, a show that is magical and that has a rallying effect: flamboyant fireworks.
