According to Favel, he has performed for 17 years. He has toured coast to coast doing what he loves.

“July 31, 1999 was the exact day I started my music career,” Favel said. “It’s been a journey.”

Favel said he lived in Prince Albert for a number of years, and then moved to Île-à-la-Crosse in 2012. While living there he formed the band Happy Hour, which he performs with when he can.

“I live in Prince Albert, so I’m not really with my boys up there anymore. It’s turning into more of a solo career now,” Favel said.

Favel said that he is looking into producing an original album in the coming years.

“I want it to be a full original, I don’t want (any) covers in there,” Favel said.

Favel will be starting school at the Gabriel Dumont Institute, where he hopes to upgrade and move onto a social work program at Saskatchewan Polytechnic.
