Bio
When it comes to music, Philip Oak is involved in every step of the creative process: songwriter, composer, producer and performer.
He played in a few alt-rock bands during his teenage years, but it was at the age of 21 that he started his first solo project under the name "Philip Oak". The Canadian artist and producer from Lac-Brome, Quebec, Canada released a first acoustic album in 2012, then an EP in 2015, followed by a few singles. It was in 2021 that he really found his place and sound with his song You’re My Gravity.
Over the past few years, Philip has spent a lot of time in the studio working with emerging artists as a producer, co-writer and session player. He has worked alongside American drummer Jim Riley (Rascal Flatts), Canadian bassist Simon Daigle and Israeli violinist Yoed Nir (Netflix), among others. In August 2023, "Camping" (producer) by Simon Lemay reached #1 on a country radio station! In June 2024, "Pour que tu reviennes vers moi" (co-writer, producer, mixer) by Bernard Cote debuted on the radio and was added to over 50 radio stations worldwide. Philip also arranged and recorded music, alongside Guy Richer, for the play "A la folie", one of the biggest musicals in Quebec, Canada in 2023 and 2024.
Even though he prefers the intimacy of the studio, he's done many shows and shared the same stage as well-established artists such as Daniel Boucher, Marilou, Andreanne A. Malette, Emilie Janvier, Hopeland, Charles-Antoine Gosselin and many others.
