Pierre Lalonde

Pierre Lalonde (born January 20, 1941 in Montreal, Quebec) is a singer and television host from Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Pierre attended high school in the United States but returned to Canada in 1960, where he worked at radio station CKJL with his father in Saint-Jérôme, Quebec. Shortly after, he worked in Montreal at CJMS.

In 1961, Pierre moved to television station CFTM to host a variety of programs, including the popular show "Jeunesse d'aujourd'hui" ("Youth of Today"). The following year, he released his first single and made his first LP in 1963. Pierre mainly recorded in French, but he released a number of singles in English as well.

Pierre's success led to his own program in New York, "The Peter Martin Show", in 1967 on WPJX. He also recorded one album, "Introducing Peter Martin", under this name.

His English language shows include "Music Hop", "The Mad Dash", "Circus" and "The Pierre Lalonde Show".

Pierre's father, Jean Lalonde, was a popular singer in the 1940s.
