Mains de Givre is a guitar/violin-centered ambient project involving self-taught experimentalist Eric Quach and classically trained musician Émilie Livernois-Desroches, from Montreal.

Quach is widely known for the experimental drone/shoegaze work he’s produced under his thisquietarmy alias and also is the founder of the post-rock band Destroyalldreamers.

Livernois-Desroches has played violin since she was seven years old and has been a part of various chamber music and symphonic orchestras. She also performs/performed with a wide variety of bands in styles ranging from pop to post-rock to medieval folk-black metal such as Le Diable aux Corsets, Sugarshack, Les Bâtards du Nord, Marie-Mai and Profugus Mortis.

So far, they’ve released one album called ‘Esther Marie’ in 2010 on Textura (Canada) which was nicely received, as well as an EP “Insomnie à l’Ail” on TQA Records (Canada) & several tracks on various compilations.

‘Mort” regroups works from the last recording sessions in 2010 & 2011.
It might be the final release for this project.
