Dañs ! is the 2017 release by the Yann-Fañch Kemener Trio, released on Coop Breizh (17 June 2017). Kemener, a leading voice in Breton traditional song and a recipient of the Kan ar Bobl prize and the Charles Cros Academy's Grand Prix du Patrimoine, formed this trio with diatonic accordionist Erwann Tobie and guitarist Heikki Bourgault — a pairing described in the press as bringing together two generations of musicians from different backgrounds around a shared Breton root.
Most of the album's 14 tracks come from Kemener's own field collections of dance repertoire from Basse-Bretagne (Lower Brittany), centered on the Kreiz Breizh (Central Brittany) area with occasional excursions into Vannetais material. Alongside 12 traditional pieces, the record includes two original compositions: an instrumental mazurka by Erwann Tobie, dedicated in the liner notes to someone he knew too briefly, and the closing track "War an hent en ur dont d'ar gêr," composed by Kemener on a traditional text.
Reviewers frame the trio's work as reinventing a form of kan ha diskan — call-and-response singing with the layered phrasing (tuilage) specific to Central Brittany — with the voice in dialogue with the accordion and guitar's melodies and harmonies. Critics point to Kemener's command of rhythmic accentuation and articulation as central to the traditional vocal style, with his younger accompanists praised for their attentive, stylistically respectful support.
