A chansonnier (French pronunciation:[ʃɑ̃sɔnje]; female: chansonnière, [ʃɑ̃sɔnjɛʁ])[1] was a poet songwriter, a solitary singer, who sang his or her own songs (chansons) with a guitar, prominent in francophone countries during the 1960s and 1970s. Unlike popular singers, chansonniers need no artifice to sing their soul poetry. They performed in "Les Boites à Chansons"[2] which flourished during those years. The themes of their songs varied but included nature, love, simplicity and a social interest to improve their world.
In Canada, the chansonnier tradition played a prominent role in the development of Quebec's social and political awareness during the Quiet Revolution,[3] (la Révolution tranquille) that led to the affirmation of national identity of Québécois people.[4] One prominent chansonnier, Robert Charlebois, transformed the province's musical culture when he moved from traditional chansonnier pop to a more rock-oriented sound with his fourth album, Lindberg, in 1968.[5]
