Eric Chenaux

Eric Chenaux has been played on NTS shows including Weekend Read w/ Jonah Rabb, with My Romance first played on 30 December 2016.

Eric Chenaux is a Canadian experimental guitarist and songwriter. He has released a series of solo albums and recorded as Eloïse Decazes & Eric Chenaux. In the 1980s and 1990s, he played with post-punk band Phleg Camp, wrote songs with the guitar duo Lifelikeweeds, played jazz in The Reveries, improvised in The Guayaveras and The Draperies, was a member of swinging jazz quintet Drumheller, played with Michelle McAdorey and with Martin Arnold, wrote jazz standards for the Ryan Driver Quartet, and composed lyrical ballads for The Tristanos. He has played as a guest with Arraymusic, Deep Dark United, Veda Hille, Sandro Perri and Josh Thorpe.

Chenaux's songs range from jazz standards to bossa to folk to balladry. Sometimes these same songs are re-baked as modal tunes for guitar, banjo, drums, swinging speakers and wah-wah pedals (as they appear on his album "Dull Lights") and become near-covers of themselves.
