Tom Leger

Tom Leger is the solo project of Thomas Leger, a songwriter, singer, drummer, and co-producer within the group Valse Fréquence. Active on the Quebec Francophone music scene since 2018, he has been developing a personal approach to songwriting—rooted in drums and vocals, and fueled by a constant curiosity for textures, production, and form.

His solo project continues what was started with Valse Fréquence, but with more freedom, intimacy, and confidence. He deepens his relationship with sound composition, exploring what happens when rhythm, voice, and sound become a single entity. His music moves fluidly between indie rock, lo-fi textures and electroacoustic genres. His approach is grounded in what’s already there: a breath, a raw take, a rhythmic motif that becomes a song. His influences—from contemporary music to pop songs—merge into an instinctive relationship with instruments and raw material.

Playing and singing at the same time means maintaining a tension between precision and excess. He knows this paradoxical gesture well: in school, he was called “enfant terrible”, the kid who never stayed still. That same energy still runs through his music—a vivid, physical pulse that constantly seeks form. His solo work is built through experimentation and storytelling, with a desire to keep the form open. It’s a free exploration, driven by voice and body, where sound becomes a language in itself.
