The master of guitar: Paul DesLauriers

A virtuoso on both electric and acoustic guitars, Cornwall native Paul DesLauriers has had a diverse and accomplished career. He studied classical violin at an early age before turning to the guitar when he was 10. An early and continuing inspiration was Rod Robillard, a fixture on the Cornwall music scene. “Rod was the guitar guy in town and a

mentor to most of us,” said DesLauriers. “He sat in with the band when we played Cornwall a few months ago. It was a great moment.” The famed musician graduated La Citadelle high school and then left Cornwall at the age of 18 to study music at McGill University. He soon gained acclaim in the 1990s as a founding member of Black Cat
