History edit

Formed in 1975 by guitarist Denis Lalonde, keyboardist Mario Dubé, bassist Mario Laniel and drummer Daniel King,[2] the band began achieving wider success after singer Sandra Dorion joined in 1983.[2] They had their first significant hit with "Amour sans romance" in 1985, and "Vivre dans la nuit", their most successful single, was its followup.[2][3] Both singles were featured on the album Vivre dans la nuit (1986).[2]

The band received two Juno Award nominations at the Juno Awards of 1987, for Most Promising Group and Single of the Year for "Vivre dans la nuit".[4] They also won two Prix Félix in the same era, for Discovery of the Year in 1986[5][6] and Best-Selling Single of the Year for "Vivre dans la nuit" in 1987.[2]

They followed up with À suivre, an album of covers of Quebec pop and rock classics by Offenbach, Beau Dommage, Robert Charlebois, Michel Pagliaro and Serge Fiori, in 1987.[2] The album was credited to Nuance & Sandra.[2] Their third and final album, Journal intime, was released in 1988.[2]

Following the band's breakup, Luc Plamondon solicited Dorion to appear in a production of Starmania, and Cirque du Soleil invited her to sing the theme song for Alegría, although she refused both offers.[7] She released her debut solo album, Telle quelle, in 2011.[7]
