On April 25, 2024, members of SPACQ-AE (Société professionnelle des auteurs et compositeurs du Québec et des artistes entrepreneurs) voted to elect their new Board of Directors at their Annual General Meeting. More than 127 votes were tallied.
SPACQ-AE welcomes to the board Edgar Bori, David Bussières, Michel Corriveau, Catherine Durand, Carole Facal, Maxime Fortin, Anaïs Larocque, Ariane Lemire and Sarahmée Ouellet. The association – which represents the interests of Francophone songwriters and artist-entrepreneurs across Canada, and all commissioned music composers in Québec – is convinced that the expertise and diversity of these new members will greatly enrich its discussions and decisions in support of SPACQ-AE’s mission. SOCAN shares this enthusiasm, and wishes the new Board every success.
