Luc is a local handpan artist who creates world class instruments. Luc is one of the last makers who's pans are 100% hand hammered. Each stroke to your hand pan has been done by hand, there are no pneumatic hammers used to create these beautiful instruments. This takes incredible skill and talent. Luc's playing skills on both the handpan and didgeridoo are top in the field and he can be heard playing throughout Ontario.   He is a regular participant in the Sound Journey Store's annual Charity event.
