He Takes inspiration from his heroes such as SRV, Hendrix, the 3 Kings and many more and combines that with some country chicken Pickin to create a unique approach to the blues.

Roloand Beaulieu and Adam Gaudet
Best friends and longtime collaborators Roland Beaulieu and Adam Gaudet have been making music together for over 16 years, and professionally for more than 10. Out of that friendship, they founded PEI band Route 225, a versatile band that has worked with Amanda Jackson, Kelley Mooney, Brooke MacArthur, Trinity Bradshaw, and Anica
The duo cut their teeth playing weekly at O’Shea’s Pub and have since built a catalogue of over 1,000 songs, spanning nearly every genre imaginable. While they’re comfortable covering anything from classic rock to country or modern hits, their true home is in the raw, soulful energy of groovy, blues-driven roots rock.
Together, Roland and Adam have played countless events across PEI, building a reputation for versatility, musicianship, and an unmistakable chemistry on stage. They’re now excited to bring that spirit to the annual Blues Summit, where they’ll open for Summerside’s own Tightrope.
