Les Hay Babies is an indie folk trio from New Brunswick, Canada. Its members—Julie Aubé (banjo), Katrine Noël (ukulele) and Vivianne Roy (guitar)—each grew up in a small Acadian village.[1]

Background

The members first met while performing as solo artists at "Accros de la chanson", a music competition sponsored by the province of New Brunswick.[1] In 2009 and 2010, each member was a prize winner.[2]

The trio met again at another music contest, "le Gala de la chanson de Caraquet", and in November 2011, Les Hay Babies formed.[1]

At the East Coast Music Awards in Moncton in 2012, Les Hay Babies surprised guests by performing in elevators.[1]

Les Hay Babies began performing in The Maritimes and Québec.[2] After performing at the Festival Interceltique de Lorient in France, they were described as "an instant hit in Europe",[1] which led to three continental tours where they performed in Switzerland, Germany, France and Belgium.[1]

In May 2013, Les Hay Babies won the Francouvertes.[2]
