About the name
In 2016, Lajoie put out his first non-comedic music, a 10 track indie folk album called I Remembered but Then I Forgot, using the moniker Wolfie's Just Fine, which references Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
Behind the camera
LaJoie wrote and performed 14 songs for The League, which was his first time writing songs for film and television.
Behind the camera
For The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, released by Warner Bros. in 2019, Lajoie contributed five songs. "Catchy Song" and "Not Evil" were among the tracks he wrote.
Behind the camera
Lajoie's song "A New Beginning" came from seeing his first horror movie, Friday the 13th: A New Beginning. He directed its music video with Brandon Dermer as a shot-for-shot remake of a scene from the film.
Behind the camera
Wolfie's Just Fine, Lajoie's project, put out an EP called Perfection, Nevada in 2018. Bright Eyes' Mike Mogis produced it, and the release touches on coming of age themes with nods to nineties films.
Early training
Lajoie finished a professional theater program in 2002. After that, he spent three years playing in a band around Montreal.
