Paul LeBlanc was born a poor Cajun child with no sense of rhythm and the inability to turn left.
At the age of 15, Paul, who despite his impediments had managed to learn how to play the piano,
trumpet, and trombone, discovered the world of the electric guitar. Captivated by guitar masters
like Eric Johnson, Steve Morse, and Eddie Van Halen, he devoted himself to learning the
instrument. After several years of nonstop practicing and gigging, however, life intruded, and
Paul packed up his guitar and put it in the closet, where it sat undisturbed for the next 25 years.
In the late 2000s, motivated by the few friends who remembered his playing from high school
and college days, Paul took his guitar out of the closet and discovered sometimes you can go
home again. He has not looked back since, playing over the last decade with a series of local
hard rock bands, including Noise Coil, Hordes of Locusts, Shotgun Approach, Rushing, and The
Age of Reason. Having seasoned his chops, Paul is now enjoying his current opportunity to play
with the highly skilled musicians, and stellar individuals, that make up the Rock-it Sound
Company.
Outside of music, Paul is a lawyer with the firm of Phelps Dunbar in Baton Rouge. When he’s
not working or playing the guitar, he enjoys reading, watching movies, talking to his children,
petting his cat, and making out with his wife, Bridget.
