Patrick Lac & South Heaven

Born in Ottawa, Patrick Lac is a singer-songwriter and crowd hypnotist. A beast of intensity on stage who mixes a dark and rich universe of words with a soothing tenor voice and luminous guitar harmonies. His hand made solo albums (Rorschach – 2012 & Bridges – 2013) are Dripping inspired artworks that have attracted the attention of critics from as far as Cincinnati, Ohio to the Cote-Nord of Quebec. 

Kento Kataoka is a stunning Japanese slide guitar player with remarkable sensitivity. He originally studied classical piano in Tokyo, but is now well established in Montreal as a soloist (The Great Novel, Gallen Hartley, Mike McKenna). 

Nino Deram has played more than 350 shows around the world at the helm of a wide range of different musical projects. Be it behind a keyboard or a microphone, his compositions are fascinating, musical, and compelling. 

Rob Linton (The Parlour Steps, CR Avery) adds his drumming with jazz-tinged sensibilities and a driving, luscious indy-rock feel from the far reaches of the Left Coast. Their addictive sound has been described as Pearl Jam meets Bon Iver.

Tom Soda is a french dj and producer settled in Montréal. For almost fifteen years, he has been a regular Paris and Montréal night bird, in particular inside the PME Records crew. He has been performing in bars and clubs as a dj or as a member of ManhattanCactus, an electro-acid live improv duet, alongside performers like Alex Smoke or Electric Indigo. Influenced by minimal and deep techno, his music modulates between experimental textures, hypnotic resonances and energetic vibes, bringing the listener into an undiscovered dimension.

Greetings! I'm a mostly self-taught musician who believes that a world with music is a world with a soul.

Also, don't expect me to settle with a single genre. I never know what's going to come out.

Go feast your ears, young ones!
