Today marks 2 years since we lost our beloved Gerrade Drouot, founder of GDP and the man responsible for being there at the very beginning of my career in France.

Gerrade stayed with me, supporting and caring for me throughout all of my artistic endeavours. His son Matthieu and the GDP team are still with me now and I’m very thankful.

RIP, my good friend and ally.

Today is world AIDS Day.

In the 1990s the Kumbaya Festival raised over $1 million during its years of activity for HIV and AIDS. This has allowed Kumbaya to create organizations such as Casey House and other locations across Canada to provide the support and awareness needed towards HIV healthcare.

Let's show the world that humanity heals.
