ABOUT
I have been playing electric guitar for more than 35 years. I have studied jazz & classical music for three years at Vanier College (CEGEP). This was followed with 5 years of gigs in & around the Quebec & maritimes regions with several semi-pro rock / prog / hard rock & metal bands. I'm still playing relentlessly with a move towards a more fusion / djent / prog-metal style.
