Musician

The musical universe of Montreal Canadian guitarist Oli Astral (Olivier Grenier-Bédard) is a fusion between the sound of modern jazz guitar, digital music technology, and visual projection. At age 32, Oli Astral embarked on the adventure of From the Astral (2022), his first album as a leader. Some elements like computers on stage, virtual instruments, MIDI controllers, digital audio processing techniques, and Frederic’s Modular Synthesizers serve the imagination of the group. The musical values thought, are still deeply rooted in the tradition of Jazz. Things like improvisation, group interaction, and risk-taking are very important in the creative process of the trio.  During his academic career, the guitarist has surrounded himself on a number of occasions with internationally renowned mentors such as John Abercrombie, Jonathan Kreisberg, and Mike Moreno
