  • Bio

    .. .. .......... .. .. ..‘The Co-accused’ is more than a band, it’s a musical organism; the pet project of Saskatchewan musician Richard Groulx. As a chameleon changes colour, ‘The Co-accused’ transforms sound, style, and even size to suit its particular mood, surroundings and circumstances in an ever changing musical landscape... .. ..An omnivore, ‘The Co-accused’ diet consists of a healthy mix of blues, rock, americana, alt-country, folk, pop, chips, berries and nuts. .. ..It is well documented that 'The Co-accused', a most resourceful creature, thrives in a variety of habitats ranging from hippy festival stages to upscale lounges, as well as brew pubs and biker bars. .. ..‘The Co-accused’ is known for periods of creative winter hibernation followed by seasonal travel of established migratory paths, most notably in the Canadian prairies. .. ..Musicological research shows that the trio version of ‘The Co-accused’ arose as early as December 2007. The Debut EP ‘One Man Solidarity’ (Nov 2008) provides a detailed 'record' of the trios musical adeptness and diversity. However sightings/hearings of this once prominent group are being reported less frequently as the trio’s status has recently been downgraded from threatened to endangered. .. ..That said, ‘the Co-accused’ will never die. We are witness to an evolution; the three headed monster (power trio) has become a small fury mammal (one man band). Group founder, Richard Groulx has assembled a unique drum kit, that he controls completely with his feet. This allows him to lay a steady beat while keeping his hands free to add hooky electric guitar riffs. With a solid guitar and drum foundation his blues harp swelling and vocals that speak without yelling, you get a truly unique and full sound. .. ..As another creative hibernation season meets its end, this new one-man edition of ‘the Co-accused’ begins preparation for a busy season of foraging, and rummaging its way across the Canadian countryside. All data indicates that ‘The Co-accused’ will continue to grow, prosper and expand its territory in 2010 and beyond.

    what you might get if you grew up listening to rock and roll, went to school for jazz, only to find yourself playing in a couple of short lived alt country bands.
