Biography

Daniel "Boom" Desjardins (born 1971) is a French Canadian singer from Val-d'Or, Quebec. He was an original member of the rock band La Chicane for eleven years, from 1993 until 2004, when he left to begin a solo career.

Desjardins was nominated for Artist of the Year and Pop Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2006.

Personal life

Desjardins has been known by the nickname of "Boom" for most of his life. As an infant, he learned to walk at an early age and was a boisterous child; his family noted the similarity to the character of Bamm-Bamm (in Quebec French, "Boum-Boum") from the popular television show The Flintstones, and began calling him "Boom" as a result. According to Desjardins, everyone called him Boom, including his family, teachers, and school principal, and he has stated that "my name is not Daniel, Daniel is someone else... my name is Boom."
