Les Sinners

The Sinners are a Quebec rock band, founded in 1965, originally from Montreal (Canada), where several members came and went, following a series of outbursts within the group, until they disbanded in 1976. The group was formed in the summer of 1965 in the Outremont district. It was with the French-language adaptation of the Beatles' song " Penny Lane " that the group was discovered by Quebec radio stations in 1967. This was followed by " Ne reste pas sous la pluie ", a cover of the Herman's Hermits song " Don't Go Out Into the Rain ", which earned them a top 10 hit on the charts that same year. In 1968, François Guy and Louis Parizeau star in the film Kid Sentiment , using the band's music and songs as a soundtrack. The Sinners change their name for the French Revolution from 1968 to 1971. They reverted to their original name in 1971, releasing an eponymous album that received little radio play at the time. The band released two more albums before their split in 1976: ? in 1975, and Le Chemin de Croix de Jos Roy in 1976. The group was resurrected for one night, on Valentine's Day 1984, at a show at Montreal's Club Soda.
