Terre de l’aube is a concept CD album and an original show created by Martin Ferron, a musical graphic novel, which brings together song (rock, alternative and world), live drawing, multimedia, comics, storytelling and animation.
Conceived by a Quebec team with the collaboration of French and Swiss partners, the work is inspired by real facts and an intimate notebook found in the wall of an old house. This diary recounts the dreams, life and personal view of an immigrant in Quebec. Written over several years, this notebook is intended for his lover and their daughter, who are held in other places .
The title is inspired by the name of the territory of the Abenaki, the Amerindian people of New England, “wobanakik“, which means land of morning, land of dawn.
