He began composing at the age of fifteen, and soon after founded the legendary group UZEB. They released 10 award-winning albums and went on to tour more than 22 countries during their 12 year career. Never resting on his laurels, Michel went on to found the critically-acclaimed group Wild Unit in the early 1990s, releasing two world-music influenced albums. The scores Michel Cusson has composed for film reveal his passion for all musical genres. They have raised the bar of Quebec industry standards, quickly making Michel one of the most sought-after composers in Canada. Michel has composed music for a significant number of films, among others Luc Dionne (Aurore), Claude Desrosiers (Dans une Galaxie Pres de Chez Vous), Pierre Houle (Monica la Mitraille), Charles Biname (Seraphin: Heart in Stone and Maurice Richard), as well as Jean Beaudin (Le Collectionneur), Stephen Low's IMAX documentaries (Volcanoes of the Deep Sea and Fighter Pilot: Operation Red Flag). He has also contributed to a host of foreign projects, notably in the United Kingdom (My First Wedding), in France (Pere et fils), and Israel (Metallic Blues). In addition, he has signed the score of many mega-shows, including Cavalia and Legendes Fantastiques and, most recently, the new Shanghai craze, ERA: Intersection of Time (Erick Villeneuve). As a composer, guitar player and multitalented musician, Michel has made his mark among the greats of the Quebec film industry and now dedicates himself to the true love of his life composing music scores.
