"Known as a very musical drummer, Denis Richard Jr gives himself heart and soul into his instrument. For this young musician the drums are just as equal as a piano, for example, in terms of sounds possibilities and accompaniment. Bringing with him some 15 years of playing, his past accomplishments include; performances across 12 different countries with BAM , recordings in studio and television, original and cover groups as well as University studies at Carleton & McGill. In short he has done and seen a lot for his young age and that has just made him hungry for more. With a smiling personality and an attention for detail, Denis is ready to make his name more familiar on the scene and it is time for the scene to get more familiar with him."
