People Project is an inter-cultural, multi-lingual cross-border group uniting collaborators from around the world to explore many genres and create both authentic and original music with a message.
Our belief in people, in humanity, manifests itself in our rich cultural exchange in the process and production of human creative skill and imagination between emerging artists from everywhere.
Based simultaneously in Canada and in Mexico and founded by Philippe Lafreniere (Canada) and Gabriel Bronfman (Mexico) in 2006, People Project is creating a dynamic intermixture of folk, funk and roots music in several languages. Afro rhythms meet the harmonic language of blues and jazz, in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese where the worlds of latin, hip-hop, reggae, and funk collide At present, Mexico City and Ottawa now act as a hub for our international artists.
By reaching out to collaborators from many countries, namely Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Cuba, Trinidad and the U.S. among others, we are building bridges and striving to create a never-ending artistic adventure, appreciated for its beauty and emotional power. As a result of our many travels and new collaborators that we meet along the way, People Project takes on new meaning with every new encounter.
