A pioneer among female singer-songwriters in Quebec, Germaine Dugas was also one of the first women to record her own songs. In 1958, she had her first hit with her song Viens avec moi et tu verras, a military march that became very popular with students. But Dugas’ biggest hit was with the song Deux enfants du même âge, for which she won the prestigious Grand Prix du disque Canadien in 1959, a first at the time not only for a woman, but for a singer-songwriter.
