Candyrat Records presents Acoustic Rock Antoine Dufour (Montreal, Quebec) www.myspace.com/antoinedufour Dufour was born in the little town of l'Epiphanie, near Montreal. He started playing guitar at the age of 15. He studied Classical guitar at the CEGEP of Joliette, where his teacher made him listen to Leo Kottke, Don Ross and Michael Hedges. His life and his vision of the guitar changed, and since then he has been completely devoted to fingerstyle steel string guitar. His musical style is a mix of the powerful rhythms of rock, the sensibility of classical music, funky grooves, some mellow progressive moods and pure folk melodies. Craig Dandrea (New Haven, Connecticut) www.myspace.com/craigdandrea Craig D'Andrea is one of the younger faces you will find on the acoustic guitar scene, but he isn't playing like he's 24 years old. Craig has been receiving support from fans and critics alike since releasing his debut album “Crazy is Catching” on CandyRat Records in March of 2007. The release of his album, along with his title of 2007 Canadian Fingerstyle Champion, has given him the chance to tour in the United States and Canada with respected artists Andy McKee, Don Ross, Antoine Dufour and Peter Ciluzzi. In the third grade, Craig began his music inclination when he chose to play the cello in his school's orchestra.
