French band founded in Nantes in 1971 by Jean-Louis Jossic, Jean Chocun and Jean-Paul Corbineau, with Bernard Baudriller.Initially called "Tri Yann An Naoned" (="Trois Jean De Nantes" ["Three Jean of Nantes"] in Breton language), they soon shorten their name to Tri Yann and gained enormous success in Brittany and France. Despite several line-up changes, their longevity, their incessant touring activity and their fidelity to their Breton roots earned them a cult status in Brittany.
