ABOUT DAVID HOULE

From rural Loretteville, Quebec, Canada, multidisciplinary artist David Houle has worked internationally for the past decade. In 2019, as a guest keyboard artist and dancer with Montreal’s atypical metal band Deadly Apples, he performed at the 25th Vans Warped Tour alongside Simple Plan, Good Charlotte and Blink 182. He also performed at the VIVO X El ROCK festival in Peru with Slipknot, The Strokes and Bullet for My Valentine and toured with Marylin Manson. Both of his parents served in the Canadian Armed Forced, and after his mother’s death in 2003, he decided to study dance full-time, later graduating from the School of Toronto Dance Theatre. In 2015 he worked alongside Cindy Lauper in the Tony Award-Winning musical Kinky Boots in Toronto. In 2020 before the global pandemic, he was set to debut the world premiere French adaptation of it in Montreal with Serge Postigo and Just for Laughs Productions. David Houle was also the lead character for two productions of Cirque Du Soleil and a dancer for the Canadian Opera Company. He is also the choreographer for Billboard charting artist Dion Todd. In the last year, David Houle has been headlining a show at the Bally’s Hotel in Las Vegas. “David Houle is a tremendous dancer in command of extraordinary physical capabilities that marry the worlds of contemporary dance and gymnastics in wild and wonderful ways.” – Peggy Baker ‘‘David Houle (keyboards, dance artist), wearing a mask that covered the lower half of his face, dances on to the stage with aggressive yet graceful acrobatics as he moves towards a keyboard. We see him throughout the set doing various back flips and dance moves, reminiscent of watching an ice skater or a gymnast. I feel the choreography is unique in the industry and the talent really sets the band apart.’’ Instagram Handle @__davidhoule Dare to be remarkable
