Influenced mostly by the places he visited and his environment, his style is as much indescriptible as meditative. BiographyJustin St-Pierre learned piano at the age of 8 for 2 years before discovering acoustic guitar. His first guitar belong to his father and was just an object of decoration in the living room before the young boy brought it to life. From the age of 11 and during all his adolescence, he practiced acoustic and electric guitar in his basement. He learned guitar by himself and never took classes. Justin St-Pierre was inspired early on by the work of Metallica, Pearl Jam, Kurt Cobain and all the underground Seatle scene. He started a band at the age of 18, Synapse, and composed most of the pieces at the acoustic guitar before playing them with a bass. He took luthierie lessons in 2002 and built his own guitar. In 2004, his music was used for the documentary Entre l'écorce et l'érable[1] and launched his first demo, Le Vent du Nord (Wind of the North) that made him win the Frimat festival in 2006.[2] In 2006, Justin St-Pierre become owner of the music bar Rafiot and released his first album Rafiot[3] in 2008 named after the culturel place. In 2010, he travelled to France as the ambassador of his city, Val d'Or, for the FrancoFete[4] festival. In 2011, his second album La Faille[5] (The Fault) is a tribute to his natal land, as it refers to the deep of the golddiggings of his region. The album is a success and made him travel in many territories of Canada. At the same time, Justin St-Pierre met Erik Mongrain. The artist became a great friend and made him appreciate some fingerstyle figures as Don Ross or Michael Hedges.
