Name: Yves Custeau

Located: St-Francois-Xavier-de-Brompton, QC, Canada

Musical influences: Malmsteen, Vai, Metallica, Gilmour, Petrucci and a lot more.

Background: Self-taught multi-instrument musician for 18 years now, I've been involved in the Eastern Townships' music scene as a musician, soundman and teacher. I also have my studio where I lay down ideas and have 100 songs to date. In 2006, I ranked 3rd place in Montreal's Guitar Hero(!)
battle among 60 guitarists (real guitarists, not the game!) and, in 2000, won 1st place at Victoriaville's Bud Rock guitar battle.
