Brasse-Camarade was a Canadian francophone rock group from Ontario, Canada. The band's two core members, brothers François and Pierre Lamoureux, were born in Sudbury, and later lived in Toronto, Ottawa, and Penetanguishene before moving to Montreal to study music at McGill University. They subsequently released their first album in 1993 and released four more albums before ending the band in 1999. They were renowned for creating and organizing a comprehensive network of venues based around schools across Canada. One of such networks eventually became Réseau Ontario. Brasse-Camarade played over 500 concerts all over North America from Alabama and Louisiana to Yellowknife and from Vancouver to Baie St-Marie in Nova Scotia. They also toured Portugal, Açores and France. The band had a few top ten hits but due to their Franco-Ontarian roots, were systematically blocked by certain radio stations in Québec and some program directors were actually very vocal about it. After meeting with one such program director who re-iterated that he would never play them on his station because they were from Ontario, they decided to go where they were gaining momentum and that was Portugal. In the end, this led to Pierre and François attracting attention and eventually paved the way for a move to New York City and the creation of FogoLabs Corp. The irony is that they had tens of thousands of fans from the non-stop touring but had no way of leveraging that with Radio or Television and that they stopped the band right at the dawn of the internet. In the case of Brasse-Camarade, Social Media would have made a huge difference to turn the tide with Radio in Québec.
