Bernard D'Anjou
Upright Bass and musical director

I have been a music teacher for the past 30 years. I've also been a musical director, director of stage bands in various schools and I've participated in special endeavours such as Jazzfest and Musicfest.

As a freelance musician playing the bass and the doublebass, I have worked with orchestras, musical bands and singers as an accompanist, arranger and musical director. I am a composer as well as a producer of demos and albums.

Valerie Caron
Valerie Caron
Singer

I have been singing since a young age. I am a member of a few different choirs and i've had roles in musicals for three years. Passionate about vocal harmonies, I was part of the vocal group Les Jazzeries for 6 years to broaden my musical horizons, and then joined the jazz trio, Sunshine. I perform in various concerts as a soloist and as a chorister. Although I love many musical styles, I likes jazz ensembles most!

Yannick Parent
Yannick Parent
Drummer

I've been playing drums since childhood, and began my professional career at the dawn of adulthood with the Quebec group Vulgaires Machins. Curious by nature, I have done multiple collaborations on discs, as well as on stages (Montreal Jazz Festival, Montreal FrancoFolies, Montreal Place des Festivals, etc.), with groups and singer-songwriters from horizons various musicals (Mentana, Viviane Audet, Edgar Bori, etc.)
Over time, I've had the opportunity to participate in the composition of music for shows and for the theater - while acting as a musician on stage.
Influenced by jazz drummers such as Max Roach and Brian Blade, and rock drummers such as John Bonham and Dave Grohl, I am very much a music lover eager for discoveries.
