Les Hou-Lops
Quebec rock band from Saint-Hyacinthe (Canada), formed in 1962 by Claude Laviolette, Gilles Rousseau, Jean-Claude Bernard, Jean-Claude Domingue and Yvan Côté. They began their career performing in local dance halls. In 1963, the group had its own radio show in their hometown of St-Hyacinthe, entitled Hou-Lops, Vous Êtes En Onde, on which they performed the hits of the day. From September 63 to July 64, the Hou-Lops are asked to host the musical program Bonsoir Copains on CHLT TV in Sherbrooke. They made their first trip to Europe for a tour in October and November 1964. To keep up with fashion and stand out from the crowd, they adopt longer hair and a white mane, the idea of their manager. The group changes its name to Les Têtes blanches. However, they were forced to revert to their original name in October 1965, following a legal problem with the Classels, who sued because of their similar hair appearance. That same year, they released the album C'Est Chip , on which five songs climbed the Quebec charts, including " Blue jeans sur la plage ", and won the yé-yé group trophy at the 1965 Festival du disque. On March 29 1966, Les Hou-Lops opened for the Rolling Stones at the Olympia in Paris. In February 1967, they accompanied singer Ronnie Bird on his Quebec tour, and released the album Je Devine la Vérité / Vendredi M'Obsède in October of the same year. In 1968, guitarist Jean-Claude Domingue was replaced by René Hamelin. Their career came to an end in June 1969.
