Background
L'expédition is the sixth album of Les Cowboys Fringants, and the first where the group only has four members, after the departure of Dominique Lebeau.[1]
The album was released on September 23, 2008, and includes 14 tracks.[2] All the tracks share the motif of the passing of time, with the album title itself symbolizing the journey of life. Compared to previous albums, the album is seen as more calm and melancholic.[3][4]
Three singles from the album occupied first place on their release in the top 100 of Quebec radios: "Entre deux taxis" (for 9 weeks), "Tant qu'on aura de l'amour" (for 5 weeks), and "La Tête haute" (for 5 weeks).
