Born in Montreal, Marie Martine Bédard is a singer, songwriter and survivor.

As a teenager, it is on bass guitar that she makes her debut on the “rock” scene with Patrick Bourgeois, who later became famous with band “The BB”,

As a rising music figure of the Montreal underground music scene of the 80s and 90s, she has the chance to work with many artists. She performs close to a thousand concerts until she sees years of efforts and momentum short-circuited.

Two months after the birth of her first child and while the summer sun was bursting her city with life, she attends the slaying of her soul and body. She is the victim of a sexual predator.

After a forced shutdown of a nearly a decade, in 2009 she embarks upon a healing journey through music studies with the renown Berklee College of Music. In 2010 she receives the celebrity-sponsored “Steve Vai Scholarship”. In 2014, she obtains a Professional Certificate in Guitar and in 2018 a Bachelor Degree of Professional Studies in Songwriting. She is the first French Canadian and Québécoise obtaining a degree with Berklee Online. A nice way to come back to life knowing that she was one of the members of the first all girls band in Quebec, Blue Oil.
