In the mid-90 created a band, which first was called Roach and then Reset, with his schoolmates: Chuck Comeau, Philippe Joliecoer and JS Boileau.
Pierre stayed for a time being the lead singer of Reset, which was in modest success in Canada. Although the money that the band received for their shows, Pierre felt obligated to work as a chef in a restaurant and to go to college, since when he was younger he wanted to be a marine biologist.

After a time of struggles and difficulties, the band was signed by Lava Records / Warner and this way, Pierre made his childhood dream come true and now can play in several countries.
