Desmond Lagace

Hi there! Thanks for visiting my site. I am a self-taught musician from Swan River, Manitoba, Canada. I have been playing the fiddle for 20 some years, and along the way have picked up the guitar, banjo, mandolin, etc. My main styles are old-time, bluegrass, Metis, among others.

Over the last couple of years I have ventured into music production, completing three independant releases in 2002, 2006 and a new project of traditional tunes just ready for 2008. I very much enjoy this aspect of the music industry and have produced CDs for other clients as well.

For the last few years, I have worked as an instructor in the school system, teaching many students the art of fiddling, mostly in the Metis style. I also teach a number of private students out of my home, as well as judging fiddling competitions, conducting fiddling workshops and playing with several bands.

I hope you enjoy some of the photos and my favorite websites.
