Overview
The name “Strand Hugg,” (raid on the coast, in Viking), recalls the Norman heritage of northern France and evokes the attachment to the history of our coasts. But far from the tumultuous history of the Vikings, it is a peaceful, friendly and festive landing that Strand Hugg invites you to…
These five Normans, originally from la Manche, make use of their musical talents derived from very diverse backgrounds, to interpret a repertoire composed of sea songs and traditional music once heard on the coast in ports and on boats in their own way, along with some original compositions with a flavour of the sea.
From their first festivals at Paimpol, Brest and Douarnenez, the band Strand Hugg, born in Granville in 1988, has performed along all the coasts of France, from Dunkirk to Cagnes sur mer, but also abroad (England, Germany, Switzerland and Italy).
In addition to the recordings listed below, the following CDs have been produced by the group. Contact them direct regarding availability.
