? THE "LEAP OF FAITH" CHRONICLES
SUMMER 2004. Leap of Faith should have been the closing chapter of Bonhomme Setter. After six very busy musical years, the group had seen several members, one after the other, leave the line-up... Leap of Faith was the final jump before the final breath. Sylvain, the founding member and only survivor of the group today, was far from believing that Bonhomme Setter would return, some years later, during a collaboration project with Luc Bourgeois (Suroît, Bodh’aktan, Sandveiss) and Marie-Noëlle.
In any event, the album Leap of Faith brings together tracks which marked the history of the group, sure values of the Irish tradition, recast in a very personal way by the musicians of Bonhomme Setter.
