Timeline
Pierre Garand (born 26 June 1972), known by his stage name Garou (a diminutive of his last name), is a Canadian singer, actor, and entertainer from Sherbrooke, Québec.
He sings in French and English.
He is known for his work in the musical Notre-Dame de Paris (playing Quasimodo in both the original French and English casts) and the No. 1 hits "Belle", "Seul", "Sous le vent", and "La Rivière de notre enfance".
Pierre Garand began playing guitar at the age of three, at the encouragement of his father.
He went on to serve in the military and started a band in 1992 called the Untouchables.
In 1997, he was discovered by Luc Plamondon while singing American blues tunes in a Sherbrooke bar.
He was drafted by Plamondon to play the role of Quasimodo in his musical Notre-Dame de Paris, which made him a star in France and launched his singing career.
He went on to play the role for three years.
In 2000, he had a successful duet with Celine Dion; "Sous le vent" became his third No. 1 single in France.
His first studio album, Seul, became the best-selling French record of 2001 and remains one of the best-selling French albums of all time, achieving two million sales in Europe and going three times Platinum in Canada.
Garou has a daughter, born in 2001, with an ex-girlfriend.
He has also dated former Yemeni singer and entertainer Arwa Jassem, known as Lahlouba.
He continued his string of hits with a live album and released a second studio record, Reviens, in 2003.
In 2004, he worked with Michel Sardou for his fourth and final No. 1 single, "La Rivière de notre enfance".
The following year, he appeared with 15-year-old singer Marilou on her song "Tu es comme ça".
From 2007 to June 2010, he dated French singer Lorie.
Sales for his third album, Garou, remained strong, and he issued the English crossover record Piece of My Soul in 2008.
It debuted at No. 2 in Canada and No. 3 in France.
Despite this success, the album became his first in France not to reach Platinum status, although it became his best-selling record in North America in seven years.
His next album, Gentleman cambrioleur, featured cover songs in French and English and became his first record to miss the top five in France, where it modestly peaked at No. 35, staying on the charts for 17 weeks.
2008's Piece of My Soul, his first English album, includes a songwriting credit by Rob Thomas on the track "Stand Up".
It remained the most successful song in French history until 2009.
He released Version intégrale in 2010, which became another top 40 hit in France and Canada.
Garou performed the Jean-Pierre Ferland song "Un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin" at the 2010 Winter Olympics opening ceremony in Vancouver.
He has also performed at the charity event Les Enfoirés for the past 19 years.{
Since 2010, Garou has released five further studio albums: Rhythm and Blues (2012), Au milieu de ma vie (2013), It's Magic! (2014), Soul City (2019), and Garou joue Dassin (2022).
Garou has collaborated with a number of musicians and composers, including with Luc Plamondon in Notre-dame de Paris.
The single "Belle" was lifted from the musical and stayed atop the French charts for a record-breaking 18 weeks.
In 2011, he was cast in the lead role of Zark in the Cirque du Soleil musical Zarkana, in New York.
