A List 9/13/99 LA BOTTINE SOURIANTE TO PERFORM AT ST. LAWRENCE CANTON -- La Bottine Souriante, whose high-energy music delighted the North Country audience when they performed here for "A Prairie Home Companion," returns to perform during St. Lawrence University's Homecoming Weekend. The concert will be on Saturday, September 25, at 9 p.m. in Gulick Theatre. Tickets are required; they are free to St. Lawrence students and $5 for general admission. Tickets are available through the E.J. Noble University Center main desk and Brewer Bookstore at St. Lawrence; the University Bookstore, Potsdam; and Northern Music and Video, Potsdam. La Bottine Souriante is made up of nine talented musicians, fusing musical styles with a dynamic presence on stage. The energy of the Quebec sound with the hint of a Celtic influence; the sexy drive of salsa; and the smooth, jazzy swing of New Orleans are intermingled to form a concert of bold and daring songs. This electrifying and visual blend of music is solidified by the ingenuity of its skillful arrangements which engulfs, amazes and transforms their audience to a universe filled with subtleness of tones and sounds. North Country Public Radio is the media sponsor for La Bottine Souriante's performance. The concert is part of Homecoming Weekend at St. Lawrence; contact University communications, 315-229-5585, for more information.-30- Back To News Releases
