Romuald Lucas It didn't take very long for Romuald to discover his passion for rhythm and for the drums. In 1985, before he could barely walk, he took his mother's knitting needles to hit the sofa cushions!

Born into a musical family, he began taking private lessons at the age of six before joining his first band when he was ten years old. However, he was forced to give up the drums for many years, yet he never lost sight of his dream to play again one day.

During this time, he devoted himself to high-level sports and competed in several French volleyball championships. He continued his business studies and then worked for Christian Dior in London.

But the real turning point in his life came in 2007 after three encounters solidified his desire to become a professional musician :

- Freddy Garreau, manager at SUPERDRUMS in Bordeaux, shared with him his passion and enjoyment of playing the drums.

- Dominique Marseille, teacher and director at the High National School Dante Agostini in Bordeaux, imparted upon him a knowledge of drumming through excellent teaching.

- Damien Schmitt, international drummer, impressed him with his technical level and his personality.

Today, he pursues his dream in North America. He is living in Montreal, where the rhythm of his life is set by concerts, tours, private lessons, and studio sessions.

His main musical influences come from different English-speaking countries and churches including bands and artists such as DC Talk, Delirious, Switchfoot, Hillsong United, Lifehouse, Audioadrenaline, MuteMath, Ivoryline, 33 Miles, By The Tree, Citizens, Casting Crowns, Third Day, Leeland, Bethel Music, Hillsong, Planetshakers, Skillet, The Kry, Starfield, Martin Smith, Paul Baloche, Kim Walker, Kevin Max, Chris Quilala, Laura Kaczor, Amanda Cook, Hunter Thompson, Steffany Frizzell, Chris Tomlin, Brian & Jenn Johnson, Darlene Zschech, Tim Hughes, Brooke Fraser, Jeremy Camp, Joel Houston, Misty Edwards, Matthew West, Jared Anderson, Steven Curtis Chapman, Matt Redman, David Crowder, Matthew Hagee, Bebo Norman, The Craab Family, Joe English, Keith Green, Guardian, Petra, Paul Wilbur, Salvador, Glenn Kaiser, The Jazz Ministry, Ron Kenoly, Mary Mary, Stacie Orrico, TobyMac, Lecrae, Israel Houghton, Kirk Franklin, Tye Tribbett, Fred Hammond…and others.
