ABOUT

I'm a Montréal based guitarist that just graduated from Musique numérique at Université de Montréal. I've practiced mostly rock and jazz in my musician career. During university, I got into electro-acoustic and video games music which now is mostly what I've done in the last years.

I miss playing with people in a band and I miss my guitar, so I'm looking to get back into it ! I've lost some of my former guitar chops, but I'm a disciplined person and I will practice!

I have now very good notions in mixing and recording, which may come in handy at some point in a band.

Influences

My 2 main guitar heroes are Jimi Hendrix and Pat Metheny. I've played, learned and analysed many of their works.

To name a few of my favorite bands of all genres:

Medeski, Martin & Wood / Massive Attack / Jethro Tull / Soundgarden / Return to Forever / Cream / Yeah Yeah Yeahs / Oasis / The Offspring / Aerosmith / Justice / Us3.

I wouldn't mind sounding like any of these bands. As you can see, my tastes goes about anywhere and my playing is versatile enough to fit any of these.
