Étienne

Born and raised in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, Étienne began performing at the young age of nine years old. While attending the University of Windsor, where he graduated with a B.A. in French Language and Literature and a B.Ed., he began composing his first few educational songs while attending Teachers’ College in 1993. His career as an educational performing artist began by accident in February of 1994, when he shared a few songs he had composed with some teaching colleagues at a district school board meeting in Stratford, Ontario. It was at this meeting where he was jokingly crowned with the stage-name “Étienne” (the French translation of his birthname of Steven). Étienne recorded his first album, self-titled “Étienne” that same summer.
