Winnipeg Folk Festival presents:  Owen Pallet w/ Little Scream

Michael James Owen Pallett (born September 7, 1979) is a Canadian composer, violinist, keyboardist, and vocalist from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and winner of the inaugural Polaris Music Prize.

Pallett is best known as a solo artist, formerly under the name "Final Fantasy". Leon Taheny is also credited as drummer and engineer. More recently, Pallett has toured with guitarist/percussionist Thomas Gill.[1]

Pallett has been noted for his live performances, wherein he plays the violin into a loop pedal, a technique also used by musicians such as Andrew Bird and Zoe Keating. Pallett uses Max/MSP to do multi-phonic looping, which sends his violin signal to amplifiers across the stage.
