I'm Steve, owner and operator of S.T.A sound and lighting in London Ontario - Canada's 3rd largest high end production company in our region. I've worked with Chris for many years now I wanted to express my appreciation for his professional approach.
Chris is always prepared with top notch gear and attitude to his craft. I myself was a drummer for years before I realized my true love and passion was professional audio. From that stand point I've been very impressed with the drum technique Chris uses. His approach to the instrument and fluent knowledge of various styles of music make him an all around Pro. Whatever your project is; from recording to live, you need a person who is completely rounded to make the project a success. Chris Lamont would be a great choice.

I can’t say enough good things about Chris. He was hired to substitute teach at my school and was given a full schedule of students from the ages of 6 to 16 years old. He was professional, patient and easy going. Not to mention he has great technical skills and very knowledgeable about the music industry. Happy to have him onboard in the near future
