My first guitar teacher was Denis Roy at Gaspé. He introduced me to the world of jazz and Joe Pass. I learned guitar one year with Richard Dunn. I learned guitar one year with Michel Vaillancourt (guitarist of André-Philippe Gagnon). I learned guitar three years with mister Claude Dyotte ( he played 30 years with Guy Nadon, the jazz drummer in Montreal), I played with the guitar sextet of mister Claude Dyotte, in this sextet Richard Ring and Joe Diloro was featuring on the guitar and Jean Cyr on the upright. Jordan Officer, guitarist of Susie Arioli Swing Bang, he taught me how to embellish chord melody and I learned the old jazz, style of Freddy Green, Django Reinhardt and Charlie Christian.
