Tri Yann

French band founded in Nantes in 1971 by [b]Jean[/b]-Louis Jossic, [b]Jean[/b] Chocun and [b]Jean[/b]-Paul Corbineau, with Bernard Baudriller. Initially called "Tri Yann An Naoned" (="Trois Jean De Nantes" ["Three Jean of Nantes"] in Breton language), they soon shorten their name to Tri Yann and gained enormous success in Brittany and France. Despite several line-up changes, their longevity, their incessant touring activity and their fidelity to their Breton roots earned them a cult status in Brittany.
