Rémi Leclerc

The eternal sideman, Montreal-based drummer Rémi Leclerc doesn't even have a single to his own name, but he has appeared on countless albums by other artists ranging from trad revivalists to avant-proggers. What they all have in common (except maybe Robert Charlebois) is creativity: Leclerc associates with stimulating artists. His drumming style is firmly anchored in rock, yet surprisingly flexible and versatile. His ability to give the simplest beat a warped feel equals his technical prowess in Miriodor's tunes.
Born in Quebec City (like Pierre Tanguay in 1961, another versatile drummer linked to the Montreal avant-garde), Leclerc was already an impressive musician at age 20, which is around the time he co-founded Miriodor with Pascal Globensky and Sabin Hudon. The group, derivative of Univers Zero, self-released its first LP in 1986. It signed with the U.S. avant-prog label Cuneiform and released an eponymous LP in 1988 (and a few more albums in the course of the next 15 years).
