Étienne

Pop bangers, jazz standards and the occasional French love song — served nightly with a grin and an open songbook. Pull up a stool. You already know the words.

Le Show

Every show’s a party

Étienne doesn’t do background music. He does packed rooms, borrowed harmonies and strangers hugging by the second chorus.

Act I

The Sing-Along

One piano. A room full of strangers. By the third song — a choir. Nobody remembers deciding to stand up.

Act II

The Standards

Sinatra, torch songs and the Great American Songbook, done the Montréal way — equal parts velvet and mischief.

Act III

The Requests

Scribble it on a napkin and send it up. He probably knows it. If he doesn’t, he’ll fake it so beautifully you’ll never tell.

The man himself — mid-chorus, obviously.

L'Histoire

From Montréal winters to Vallarta sunsets

Étienne grew up on the snowy side of the border — a French-Canadian kid who figured out early that the fastest way to warm up a room is to sit down at a piano and refuse to be ignored.

A decade of piano bars between Montréal and the Bahía de Banderas taught him the only rule that matters: everyone — everyone — secretly wants to sing. At thirty-one, he’s the guy who gets them to admit it. Two languages, one songbook, zero quiet nights.

“The piano man who makes every show a party.”

Sound check,
sunset check

Fifty seconds from a rooftop over the Bahía de Banderas — one keyboard, the day's last light, and the reason he traded snowbanks for palm trees. Sound on.

Le Répertoire

From “Piano Man”
to “My Way”

A working songbook, four hundred deep and growing every season. A few of the usual suspects:

…and about four hundred more. Go ahead — try to stump him.

À votre tour — your turn. Tap a key.

Careful — that’s how he got started.
