Deweare

"[2] Prior to coming to Canada, Deweare moved to Brussels and recorded some material under the name Franck Marx, on the same label as Belgian rock band dEUS.

"[1][2] By chance, Deweare struck-up a conversation with Québécoise musician Ariane Moffatt in 2004 during a flight delay at Charles de Gaulle Airport on his way to Canada for the very first time.

After listening to some of his demos, Moffat connected Deweare with some local, Montreal talent—including the members of electro-jazz band Plaster, who wound up backing him on his debut album, High Class Trauma.

The album is a mixture of grunge-like guitar and electronica and is at times atmospheric, much like a movie soundtrack; the songs are all performed in English and some contain hints of trip-hop and jazz.

[1][6] In early 2009, Deweare collaborated with Ariane Moffatt and co-wrote "L'homme de la situation" on Amandine Bourgeois's first album (released June 1).
