Career
An Innu from Maliotenam, he was half of the popular folk music duo Kashtin, the most commercially successful musical group in First Nations history. He released his debut solo album, Innu Town, in 1997. Two years later, he was seriously injured in a car accident.
Lesage also helped McKenzie to write the only French song of the album, "Nous".
All other songs are written in Innu, a native language found in Québec, as it was the case with all songs from the three albums issued by Kashtin in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
