ANDIE DUQUETTE
AUTRICE-COMPOSITRICE-INTERPRÈTE
SINGER-SONGWRITER
BIOGRAPHIE | FRANÇAIS
Dès son tout jeune âge, Andie Duquette brille sous les projecteurs des plateaux de tournage et derrière les micros des studios d’enregistrement. Elle prête sa voix pour plusieurs émissions jeunesse dont Sesame Street, La Boîte à Lunch et Caillou. Au fil des années, son expérience lui permet de collaborer avec des artistes de renom tels que Jim Corcoran, Robert Charlebois et Louise Forestier. Une solide formation en chant et en danse l'amène à se produire pour plusieurs années sur différentes scènes du Québec, aux États-Unis, en Europe, en Asie, au Mexique et dans les Caraïbes. C'est d'ailleurs lors d’un long séjour en République dominicaine que son groupe de musique originale anglophone "SnowProof" voit le jour.
Andie se fait connaître du grand public en 2013 alors qu'elle participe à la première édition de l'émission La Voix diffusée sur le réseau TVA. Elle est recrutée dans l'équipe de Marc Dupré qui l'invite ensuite à participer à deux tournées de festivals consécutives, partout en province.En 2015, Andie Duquette s’entoure d’une solide équipe: John Nathaniel (Marie-Mai, Final State, Marc Dupré) et Bryan Levesque (PERKiNS) à la co-écriture afin de proposer 2 extraits en radio. “On n’se dit pas qu’on s’aime” s’inscrit comme Buzz NRJ dès sa sortie et la chanson est propulsée au #1 BDS Pop-Rock. La pièce “Pourquoi c’est toi” assure avec brio la suite en radio et tourne à ce jour sur plus de 60 stations à travers le Québec. Ces 2 extraits ont su donner le ton à son premier album Ton problème, réalisé par John Nathaniel et masterisé par Ted Jensen (The Police, Florence + The Machines, The Rolling Stones). Le troisième extrait "Trop pour moi" permet entre autres à Andie de faire son entrée sur les ondes de MusiquePlus. Enfin, elle sort en mai 2016 son quatrième extrait en radio : "Contraire" et à l'automne 2016, "Pour oublier".
C’est lors de la demi-finale de La Voix en 2013 que le réalisateur Tino Izzo (Céline Dion, Bobby Bazini) a remarqué Andie Duquette. Dès leurs toutes premières séances en studio, la magie a opéré et ensemble, ils ont su créer un son New Country-Rock lui ressemblant. L’intérêt du milieu fut immédiat et les extraits « Wrong Wrong Wrong » et « Nothin’ On Me » ont connu un succès fulgurant partout au Canada. C’est d’ailleurs grâce à ces derniers que l’album a été signé en licence en mars 2018, chez Spectra Music Group aux États-Unis. Le marché américain ouvre donc ses portes à Andie, notamment avec Disney qui lui demande de représenter le Canada lors de sa campagne « Dream Big, Princess ». Andie reste bien évidemment présente en radio au Québec avec « À jamais » en 2018, le premier extrait de son prochain EP à paraître en 2019. Ayant toujours été productrice de son matériel, Andie porte dorénavant le chapeau de co-réalisatrice puisque "Dis-moi", son nouvel extrait, a été entièrement réalisé par elle-même et son conjoint, Bryan Levesque.Enfin, les nombreux fans de la revue musicale Rock Story sont ravis car Andie devient, en 2020, la nouvelle partenaire de scène du chanteur et fondateur du projet musical, Jean Ravel.
BIO | ENGLISH
From a very young age, Andie Duquette shone under the spotlight on film sets and behind the microphones of recording studios. She lent her voice to several children's shows, including *Sesame Street*, *La Boîte à Lunch*, and *Caillou*. Over the years, her experience allowed her to collaborate with renowned artists such as Jim Corcoran, Robert Charlebois, and Louise Forestier. With strong training in singing and dance, she performed for several years on various stages across Quebec, the United States, Europe, Asia, Mexico, and the Caribbean. It was during a long stay in the Dominican Republic that her English-language original music group, *SnowProof*, was formed.
Andie gained widespread recognition in 2013 when she participated in the first season of *La Voix*, broadcast on TVA. She was recruited by Marc Dupré’s team, who later invited her to join two consecutive festival tours across the province.
In 2015, Andie Duquette surrounded herself with a strong team, including John Nathaniel (*Marie-Mai, Final State, Marc Dupré*) and Bryan Levesque (*PERKiNS*) as co-writers, to release two radio singles. *On n’se dit pas qu’on s’aime* was immediately recognized as a "Buzz NRJ" hit upon release and soared to #1 on the BDS Pop-Rock chart. The follow-up single, *Pourquoi c’est toi*, also found great success, playing on more than 60 stations across Quebec. These two hits set the tone for her debut album, *Ton problème*, produced by John Nathaniel and mastered by Ted Jensen (*The Police, Florence + The Machine, The Rolling Stones*). The third single, *Trop pour moi*, helped Andie make her debut on *MusiquePlus*. She then released her fourth radio single, *Contraire*, in May 2016, followed by *Pour oublier* in the fall of 2016.
During the semifinals of *La Voix* in 2013, producer Tino Izzo (*Céline Dion, Bobby Bazini*) took notice of Andie. From their very first studio sessions, the chemistry was undeniable, and together they crafted a unique New Country-Rock sound that truly represented her. The industry’s response was immediate, with her singles *Wrong Wrong Wrong* and *Nothin’ On Me* achieving tremendous success across Canada. Thanks to these tracks, her album was signed under license with Spectra Music Group in the United States in March 2018. This marked her entry into the American market, even leading Disney to invite her to represent Canada for its *Dream Big, Princess* campaign.
Andie remained active on Quebec radio with *À jamais* in 2018, the first single from her upcoming EP set for release in 2019. Having always been the producer of her own material, Andie took on the role of co-producer, as her new single *Dis-moi* was entirely produced by her and her husband, Bryan Levesque.
Finally, fans of the musical revue *Rock Story* were thrilled when Andie became the new stage partner of singer and project founder Jean Ravel in 2020.
