He has always been an integral part of our family and continued to work with us behind the scenes as our recording engineer and co-producer.
“On bass we welcome Vincent Harnois ! Some of you might recognize Vince as the guitarist for Karkaos. He has been a long-time friend of the band and we can’t wait to hit the stage with him.
“On Lead Guitar we welcome David Gagné! David has been our live lead guitarist for years now (when we actually get around to playing). It is a pleasure to share the stage with him again!
