Eugène Daignault (September 14, 1895 in Saint Albans, Vermont[1] – January 27, 1960 in Montreal) was an American-Canadian performer, known for his music, his comedy, and his radio performances — in particular, on the Société Radio-Canada soap opera Un homme et son péché, where he portrayed "Pere Ovide" from 1949 to 1960.[2]
His radio career began in 1922, with a performance on CKAC radio mere days after its launch.[2]
In 1926, he signed a recording contract with the Canadian branch of Starr Records, for whom he recorded 93 songs, some of which were in collaboration with Mary Bolduc;[2] He also recorded for Bluebird Records beginning in 1942.[2]
