Maten convinces you that the Innu language is perfect for the tones and rhythms of folk-rock. You don’t need to understand the lyrics to sense their spirit: it’s about remembering your roots to find your future. They hail from Uashat Mak Mani-utenam (Maliotenam) on Quebec’s North Shore, like the renowned ’90s band Kashtin. That’s a relevant reference, given that the band includes the son of the trailblazer father. With four solid albums and a strong concert career, Maten is a key player in the thriving Innu cultural scene. Can we call it new Innu?

Business Hours
Maten
Maten, former de Samuel Pinette, Mathieu Mckenzie et Kim Fontaine, est un groupe innu originaire de Mani-utenam situé sur la côte Nord du Québec, ancré entre la rive du Saint-Laurent et la forêt boréale.
Respecté par ses pairs et reconnu par le public depuis de nombreuses années (nommé au Gala de l’Adisq 2019), Maten propose un quatrième album aux sons assumés folk-rock alternatif et festif. Une des caractéristiques dominantes de Maten est aussi l’engagement dans leurs paroles pour leur communauté, leur langue et leurs racines innues. Les textes sont porteurs de leurs valeurs et de leur culture, de la fierté de leur identité, le propos est fort et direct, dirigé vers l’avenir mais aussi très réaliste et traite des difficultés auxquelles les communautés doivent encore faire face.
