Sylvain Cossette

Sylvain Cossette has been a steady presence in Quebec pop-rock since the late 1980s. After his early days with the anglophone band Paradox, he stepped into a solo path in the mid-90s with Comme l’océan and Prendre le temps, where melodic rock and tender ballads meet, built around clear vocals and tight songwriting. Humain and Rendez-vous pushed that adult pop line further, while constant touring sharpened his stage instincts and kept his songs close to their audience.

From the mid-2000s, Cossette also leaned into the shared memory of popular music. Grandes chansons opened the door, then came the 70s trilogy, reworking anglo-American hits through a clean, accessible pop-rock lens. That back-and-forth between originals and covers defines his approach, a bridge between Québec chanson and North American pop culture, with arrangements that stay focused on melody and voice.

On August 29, 2026, Sylvain Cossette brings this blend to Théâtre Manuvie in Brossard. A concert shaped by songs that move from intimate textures to fuller, guitar-driven moments, carried by a singer who knows how to let the melody lead.
