Country music singer-songwriter and singer Laurie LeBlanc is nominated at the Éloizes Awards in the “Artist who has distinguished himself outside of Acadia” category with his 2020 album When It's Right It's Right .
The prestigious bi-annual event that celebrates the dynamism, quality and originality of the work of professional artists from all over Acadie, will take place on Saturday, October 1, 2022 in Petit-Rocher, New Brunswick.
It is an honor to receive a nomination at the Éloizes.” Proudly says Laurie LeBlanc. “I'm very grateful to be recognized by my peers; and above all to know that the artistic and cultural industry supports and
country music." Adds the Acadian artist from Bouctouche, NB who recently received the title of New-Brunswick Ambassador at the AACCF. (Association des Artistes Country Canadiens.nes Francophones).
In 2020, Laurie celebrated 10 years of solo career with the release of her 7th album When It's Right It's Right.
The success of the album continued to expand including the hit “All In” – the only track on the album co-written by the artist –
which went to the #1 position in the top 100 of the “Canadian Indie Country Countdown” on January 19th, 2021.
The stars were aligned for the creation of this seventh album which was produced by the award wining producer Jason Barry,
and here's another reason to believe in When It's Right It's Right! Indeed, it was during a trip to France to participate in a
dance and country music congress organized by the Francophone Federation of Country Dance and Line Dance FFCLD that
Laurie LeBlanc meets Irish singer-songwriter Don Mescall. This meeting enabled Mescall to
pitched several demos songs to LeBlanc for When It's Right It's Right, including his title track which tells precisely that when everything
lines up easily, it's because it had to happen and it will be something positive.
Laurie LeBlanc made himself known in Quebec thanks, among other things, to the success of his mega-hit Moi-itou mojito, which
climbed to the top of Canadian ITunes Francophone charts in 2016. During his 10-year career
