From opening for Young the Giant in 2014, playing Osheaga that same year and then again coming back to the Metropolis, back to the Virgin Radio Red Room and all the way up to the Bell Centre.. I think I’ve photographed every Vance Joy show in the city over the last 10 years except his… Continue reading Vance Joy | MTelus | Montreal Concert Photographer

Damso | Place Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
The Belgian rapper / songwriter known as Damso recently had 2 nights sold out at Laval’s Place Bell. 8000+ fans lined the streets outside the arena waiting to see the start on stage. He had cancelled a performance at last year’s Osheaga, a few days after ASAP Rocky had also decided not to show, and… Continue reading Damso | Place Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
Three Days Grace | Place Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
There is one thing that is a sure bet in live music… you know you are going to get a kick ass rock show when Three Days Grace take the stage. The band has so many hits they hold the Billboard record for most #1 mainstream rock songs. Not too bad for a bad out… Continue reading Three Days Grace | Place Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
Stromae | Centre Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
There are not many artists who can say they sold out an arena for 4 nights. Let alone one that sings in french. I mean, other than Celine Dion, who else has the artistic klout to sell so many tickets at the Bell Centre? Stromae is that artist. Sometimes singer, sometimes rapper, he packed in… Continue reading Stromae | Centre Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
The Offspring tour photography | Montreal Concert Photographer
I got the call about a week before the show asking if I would be interested in being the band photographer for the one and only The Offspring when they hit the stage at the Montreal Bell Centre on November 4th on their Let The Bad Times Roll tour. I have covered the band a… Continue reading The Offspring tour photography | Montreal Concert Photographer
Ghost | Place Bell | Montreal Event Photographer
Swedish band Ghost brought their elaborate and theatrical tour to Laval’s Place Bell last night. Papa and his Nameless Ghouls, as per usual, put on an entertaining set, their Imperatour has been well received. Place Bell was nearly as full as you could have it, and having powerhouse openers like Mastodon and Spiritbox does help.… Continue reading Ghost | Place Bell | Montreal Event Photographer
My Chemical Romance | Bell Centre | Montreal Concert Photographer
It had been 12 years since My Chemical Romance had taken the stage in Montreal. The highly anticipated reunion tour packed in the Bell Centre. The energy and intensity was as it had been in the band‘s prime. I was pleasantly surprised to see a varied mix of ages in the crowd. Thinking My Chemical… Continue reading My Chemical Romance | Bell Centre | Montreal Concert Photographer
Greta Van Fleet | Bell Center | Montreal Event Photographer
Greta Van Fleet have been tagged with bringing back classic rock and roll. Early comparisons to Led Zepplin were easy, but their sound is growing, a bit more mature, a bit more their own. I was psyched to see them for the first time on stage at Montreal’s Bell Centre. Brothers Josh, Jake and Sam… Continue reading Greta Van Fleet | Bell Center | Montreal Event Photographer
IleSoniq 2022 | Recap | Montreal Event Photographer
Back for its 7th full edition (+1 redux edition last year), Montreal’s Parc Jean-Drapeau EDM festival, IleSoniq, brought in 60,000+ dancing fans over its 3 days. I’ve covered every year of IleSoniq since it began its EDM domination back in 2014. To see how big it has grown is really cool, considering the under 10k… Continue reading IleSoniq 2022 | Recap | Montreal Event Photographer
The Kid LAROI | MTelus | Montreal Event photographer
Not sure if sensation is the right term, but there is most def a strong wave of intensity when it comes to Australian rapper The Kid LAROI. The 19 year old phenom is all the buzz, and has released only 1 album earlier this year, with an EP and a mixtape a few years before.… Continue reading The Kid LAROI | MTelus | Montreal Event photographer
Alexisonfire | MTelus | Montreal Concert Photographer
Punk? Hardcore? Post hardcore? I get lost in the labels people assign to music. One thing is for certain, one of the longer lasting and heavier hitting bands, Alexisonfire, still knows how to deliver an intense show, 20+ years after the band first got together. Alexisonfire, or often called AOF, had 2 jammed packed back… Continue reading Alexisonfire | MTelus | Montreal Concert Photographer
Francos de Montréal 2022 | Montreal Concert Photographer
De retour depuis 2 ans d’absence en présentiel, le premier des gros festivals traditionnels de Montréal a eu lieu il y a quelques semaines. Les Francos de Montréal kicked off summer 2022 in grand style, bringing out the crowds to the Quartier des Spectacles. A great mix of new and more long standing french artistes,… Continue reading Francos de Montréal 2022 | Montreal Concert Photographer
Imagine Dragons | Bell Centre | Montreal Concert Photographer
Probably one of the more entertaining pop rock bands to see live are Imagine Dragons. While around since 2008 or so, they really started to make waves in 2012 and other than appearing at Osheaga in 2013, they have only played arenas here since. Gives you a good indication to Imagine Dragons popularity in town,… Continue reading Imagine Dragons | Bell Centre | Montreal Concert Photographer
Mika | Centre Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
A little over 2 years is what it took for Mika to finally entertain Montreal. After an appearance on Star Academie, the ultra energetic singer was all smiles on stage at the Bell Centre. The crowd, who brought flowers for Mika, were just as enthousiastic to hear his hits like Grace Kelly and Big Girl… Continue reading Mika | Centre Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
Rise Against | Centre Videotron
A few weeks ago I was contacted to cover a few shows for Rise Against on their new your with Billy Talent. As I was already contracted to cover their show in Montreal, I offered to make my way down to Quebec City for the first show of the tour. Rise Against are probably one… Continue reading Rise Against | Centre Videotron
Ilesoniq Redux 2021
Not sure how to put into words the feeling of being at one of our major outdoor festivals again. It has been a little over 2 years for me. The last outdoor festival I worked at was Ilesoniq back in August 2019. Ilesoniq Redux, a slimmed down version where concert go-ers are set in 500… Continue reading Ilesoniq Redux 2021
Post Malone | Montreal Concert Photographer | Pierre B Photo
How do you classify an artist such as who has a stage name that was created with an online rap name generator? To say that Austin Richard Post (aka Post Malone) is a rapper isn’t enough. Posty kind of melds hip hop with country with rock and throws in a bunch of tracks while singing.… Continue reading Post Malone | Montreal Concert Photographer | Pierre B Photo
KORN | Bell Centre | Montreal Event Photographer
Nu metal pioneers Korn (sorry can’t find the right font for the reversed R 😉 ) were at Montreal’s Bell Centre a few nights ago and put on a helluva show. It has been about 25 years that the band has been pumping out the metal, and after seeing them live for my third time,… Continue reading KORN | Bell Centre | Montreal Event Photographer
Best of 2019 concert photos
The last 12 months have been pretty intense for my concert photography. I’ve continued my 5 year working relationship with the amazing folks at Bell Media, covering shows during the year for iHeartradio, CHOM FM, Virgin Radio … and adding on board Rouge FM and Energie this past year. My summers are packed with the… Continue reading Best of 2019 concert photos
Gowan | Corona Theatre | Montreal Concert Photographer
A classic in the Canadian rock world for the last 40 years… Lawrence Gowan, known on stage as just Gowan, can still pack a venue, as was the case with the Corona Theatre. The venue had chairs all around, but by the end of the first set, the crowd was all standing. It was for… Continue reading Gowan | Corona Theatre | Montreal Concert Photographer
Bebe Rexha | Montreal Concert Photographer
Bebe Rexha, singer, songer writer and rising star, opened up the evening at the Bell Centre last week during the Jonas Brothers Happiness Begins tour. While Bebe has been around for a few years, from getting writing credits on Eminem’s The Monster to a few EP releases, I first heard of Bebe Rexha on her… Continue reading Bebe Rexha | Montreal Concert Photographer
Jonas Brothers | Bell Centre | Montreal Concert Photographer
After a little over 6 years of being officially split, the Jonas Brothers finally decided to tour together once again. The once Disney stars from the mid 2000s had some individual solo efforts over the years, but judging by the loud screams at Montreal’s Bell Centre, the fans were just a wee bit happy to… Continue reading Jonas Brothers | Bell Centre | Montreal Concert Photographer
The Offspring + Sum 41 | Place Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
Place Bell in Laval had an amazing double bill for punk rock fans last night. Legends The Offspring, along with Canadian punk rockers Sum 41, took to the stage in front of a packed arena. Presentement by local summer punk festival 77 Montreal, the evening started at an early 7pm with English punkers Dinosaur Pile-Up… Continue reading The Offspring + Sum 41 | Place Bell | Montreal Concert Photographer
Moist | Corona Theatre | Montreal Concert Photographer
It has been 25 years since Canadian rockers Moist released their multi platinum album Silver. I was 18 at the time, right smack in my first concert going phase of my life. I remember seeing them at Montreal’s Spectrum for the first time and their stage energy blew me away. I believe I have totalled… Continue reading Moist | Corona Theatre | Montreal Concert Photographer
