[1][2] The group's core members are Alexandre « Moulin » de Grosbois-Garand and Mélisande Gélinas-Fauteux, a married couple from Beloeil, Quebec,[3][4] who perform with a rotating collective of supporting musicians and dancers.
The two married in 2012 and started working together on mixing traditional songs with electro-pop music.
Mélisande's background as pop-rock singer combined with « Moulin » experience has a multi-instrumentalist with Genticorum and other traditional band gave an interesting result.

[6] Their second album, Les millésimes, was released in 2017 on Borealis Records,[7] garnering the band two more Canadian Folk Music Award nominations, for Traditional Singer of the Year and Pushing the Boundaries, at the 13th Canadian Folk Music Awards.
