Straight Road + Band in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, QC

ABOUT

At the end of 2008, 2 members of the current band decided to unite their passion and start a new project called Straight Road…. Ghislain and Nicolas worked a couple of months prior to that on some cover tunes. While playing together, they found out that the chemistry was obviously there. They then decided to start a new project that was more personal to them.
Both artists wanted to bring their own musical experiences to this common and unique goal. With a hard rock edge (Nicolas) and melodies (Ghislain) that could touch any body. Without any barriers or defined style. Anything is possible, from ballads to pop rock songs and hard rock to punk songs.
After most of the material was written, the rest of the band entered in the picture. First on bass guitar Tommy, and then Alexandre on drums. The chemistry was instant between the four musicians and they still had the same goal. Playing music they loved and others could love too. The band made some final touch ups on the songs and after a couple of months of practicing and doing gigs, they went in the studio to record their 1st LP…Straight Road.
Who knows what lies ahead for this amazing band? One thing is certain, they shall conquer the world from west to east and give the music lovers something good, pure and real.
