Dominic Lavoie is a singer-songwriter, musician and producer who uses music to stay as true to himself and the creative spirit as possible. Ethereal dreams to jarringly clear human experiences dance in his songs: and become real both on stage and through his albums.
He’s shared the stage with Rayland Baxter, Los Lobos, Dr Dog and Guster; and Lavoie is as comfortable on stage as he is in the studio, having released 7 full lenths, 2 EPs and a self-directed music film.
Dominic’s co-written for artists, like rapper Spose, and collaborated with producer Steve Berlin (Los Lobos, Deer Tick) on his own 2020 release ‘Wave With a Broken Arm’. Lavoie’s 2022 release ‘FLUX’ is a collection of songs written during the pandemic, recodrded to a 16-tract reel-to-reel tape maching and mixed in isolation.
