Diane Dufresne first wooed Quebec with her banjo-plucked 1972 single, “J'ai rencontré l'homme de ma vie”—an atypically down-home introduction to a career that would be defined by vocal and sartorial extravagance. Dufresne became a franco-pop star on both sides of the Atlantic thanks to chandelier-rattling orchestral ballads like 1979’s “Hymne à la beauté du monde,” while the ’80s yielded a stylistic eclecticism (her synth-pop remake of “La vie en rose”) to match her increasingly outlandish hairstyles. Since the ‘90s, she’s favored performance over recording, but the sweeping 2018 single “Mais vivre” finds her voice as arresting as ever.
