Les Charbonniers De L'Enfer are a folk music group based in Quebec (Canada). The group is part of a revival in interest in Quebec's folk music. They sing A Capella and uses Podorythmie; a traditional French Canadian method of tapping ones feet during musical performances, which is a common practice in Québécois and Acadian music. It is a percussion technique that uses the feet as a musical instrument to produce sound by hitting the feet on the floor.
