Tricot Machine was a Canadian indie pop band, active from 2005 to 2012. Originally from Trois-Rivières, Quebec, the band's core members were Catherine Leduc and Matthieu Beaumont.[1][2]
History
Leduc and Beaumont formed Tricot Machine in 2005. They released their self-titled debut album in 2007 on Grosse Boîte. The album was named Chanson Album of the Year at the Quebec Independent Music Awards.[3] They won a Félix Award that year for Révélation de l'année (New Artist of the Year),[1] and Leduc won the Echo Songwriting Prize (French division) for their single "L'Ours".[4]
In 2008, the duo released Tricot Machine chante et raconte 25 décembre, a Christmas-themed package comprising an EP of Christmas music and an illustrated children's book featuring an original Christmas story.[5] They followed up with their second full-length album, La prochaine étape, in 2010.[6]
Leduc announced in early 2013 that she was working on her debut solo album.[1] The album, Rookie, was released in 2014,[7] and she followed up in 2017 with the album Un bras de distance avec le soleil.[8] Although both were billed as solo albums rather than Tricot Machine albums, Beaumont remained involved in the production, songwriting and instrumentation on both releases.
