Hey! My name is Colin Jacques, I suppose I am one of the new additions to the P4A team! Before anything else, here is a little about me! I have been involved in local music since I was 12. I was a promoter for 3 years and played in a Metalcore band for 2. I am currently touring and playing shows with In Lights (Irony!) as lights and backing vocals, it’s not a flashy and exciting position, but it has allowed me travel with some of my best friends for …
