NEW WEB SITE RELEASE, November 23
It is with great pleasure that I now launch my new English Website (with a capital W) :-), ain’t life grand?
Many thanks to Marie Faubert for creating this amazing Website! Your endless generosity, your attention to detail, your inspired creativity and beautiful photography provide me with the motivation to continue. Thank you for highlighting the path I have been following, making my reality sublime!
Heart-warming French Songs… Classics with a Jazzy Lounge touch…
I continue to honour my corporate commitments and am having a blast !!
We added Special Requests a bit cliché but smart Grégory Charles style (see video section) and they push us farther (hard to believe, but they do). We are also working on a new lounge concept featuring French songs… We tried it on stage and the reception was amazing!! It was an instant hit for the public and us. By us, I mean my friend and pianist GaétanDaignault, who plays divinely, and Alain Picotte, a gifted bass player with a lot of flair. More shows will be coming soon… Stay tuned!
THE QUÉBEC CITY PRIDE FESTIVAL, August 15th, 2014
I will be performing at Place d’Youville in Québec City on Sunday, August 31st at 11h00 for the Québec City Pride Festival. On the menu, mostly French songs in a playful acoustic environment, despite the end of Indian summer …with Quebec City’s own, Sébastien Champagne, an amazing pianist, and a few extra performances by “yours truly“ on guitar. A guaranteed pleasure!!
What an amazing gift it was to rub shoulders with such an icon of Quebec history… what a privilege it was to share the stage with him!

My latest album, the White Project, was released in 2009. The first single, “Love of You”, played in more than 35 radio stations throughout Québec, New Brunswick and Ontario, climbed all the way to the 27th spot on the ADISQ music chart, which is no small feat!! Thanks to Dola Communication’s Dominique Lalande’s incredible radio-tracking work, Jean Brouillard and his team’s precious collaboration in managing press relations and, last but not least, Alain April’s assistance with the launch at the Bonne Entente Hotel.

This is an English album (my first draft is always in English !) produced by Lina Jean, made in close collaboration with my friend Jacques Gaines, formerly of “Soul Attorneys”. It is a very upbeat, folk-pop album in which I play both guitar and keyboards: it is truly worth a listen.
Part of the profits will be donated to Doctors Without Borders : www.msf.ca
Small reminder to those of you who have yet to experience this amazing album ☺ : you can give it a listen on the following sites : www.itunes.com
