Born and raised in Beirut, Lebanon Antoine embarked on the journey of music at the very young age of 5. He took piano lessons, solfège and music theory all in parallel till the age of 11, that's when he lost interest in playing the piano; at least the classical pieces he had to play. Around that time, his father started teaching him how to play the guitar but his dad's classical influences were not what Antoine was looking for. At the age of 14, he started practicing seriously the guitar, playing different modern styles and started taking rather advanced guitar and music theory lessons. On both acoustic and electric guitars, Antoine formed in time his own style and own feeling that is prominent in his music. Today, he composes music at home, mainly for short movies. Having many influences, his music is rather hard to be confined under a specific category. He is currently working in his home studio on his new Rock / Progressive Metal album entitled "New Creation" in which he sings and plays most of the instruments. His latest single "Your Word" got released on the internet in August 2010.
