Mission
Les Faux-Monnayeurs artistic services Cooperative (the COOP) was conceived in 2002, its sole activities revolving around pop group Tomas Jensen & les Faux-Monnayeurs.
In 2005, wanting to support fresh musical talent, the COOP decided to open its doors to new members, offering them services such as management, booking, and stage production.
Now, after four years of activity, the COOP is supplying these services to five new acts: Sagapool (A.K.A. Manouche), Les Tireux d’Roches, Guillaume Arsenault, LARA, Mille Monarques, and Francis Roberge. And of course, it still produces Tomas Jensen’s shows.
Tomas Jensen is the president of the COOP. Its managers are Jean-François Guindon and Louis Côté, assisted by Célia Foizon and Aurélien Girard. Each group and artist involved takes part in the COOP’s administrative council. The COOP advocates staying power and fairness towards its members; all participants are free to develop their own artistic destinies through the use of shared resources. The balanced use of revenue and spending provides a transparent environment where trust prospers between artists, managers, and producers.
COOP members enjoy sustained visibility during national and international cultural events and activities. However, the situation would be quite different without help from the Canadian and Québécois governments’ cultural institutions, and their producers and distributors. We thank them for their support, confidence, and recognition.
You can meet COOP Les Faux-Monnayeurs at several music conferences including RIDEAU, OCFF, ROSEQ, RADARTS, Contact Ontarois, Congrès des Festivals du Québec and WOMEX.
Sagapool is represented @ APAP, Cinars, Pacific Contact and Capacoa by Marilyn Gilbert for the US and Canadian markets (except Quebec).
