Serge Locat

Serge Locat is a Canadian keyboardist and pianist, most famous for spending three years as a member of Harmonium. Prior to joining Harmonium, he supported Catherine Lara during her Quebec tour in the early 1970's and also lead the progressive rock band Nécessité. He joined Harmonium in August of 1974 after band leader Serge Fiori heard him recording music for a commercial at a studio and was impressed. He performed on Harmonium's second and third albums, but complained that his writing contributions were often rejected. After Fiorir denied him permission to record and release a solo album, he announced his departure from Harmonium in August of 1977. However, Locat remained with the band until October of 1977 to fulfill the band's European tour supporting Supertramp. Locat then spent the next year writing and recording his debut full-length "Transfert" which was released in November of 1978.
Brother of Gilles Locat and Michel Locat, and father of Maude Locat.
