- John Lefebvre (born August 6, 1951), is a musician, composer, entrepreneur, retired lawyer and philanthropist. In 2007 at the age of 56, he composed and recorded a double CD album entitled Psalngs with the help of record producer Brian Ahern. This is his first effort as a solo artist. He is a benefactor of Vancouver public relations specialist James Hoggan's DeSmogBlog. com, a whistleblower blog aimed at exposing those who would deny the effects of fossil fuel upon climate, covertly on behalf of fossil fuel producers. Since July 2009 Lefebvre has been a director of the David Suzuki Foundation. He is also a continuing supporter of the Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education, a Vancouver-based institution focused upon the teachings of Dalai Lama and “education of the heart”. In 1999, Lefebvre and his partner Stephen Lawrence co-founded NETeller (now known as Neovia), an online money transfer facility that serviced among others, the online gambling industry. In January 2007, Lefebvre was arrested in Malibu, California and accused of money laundering and "conspiring to transfer funds with the intent to promote illegal gambling" by the Manhattan federal court. He was released on bail of $5 million and in the summer of 2007 plead guilty to a lesser offense. He is awaiting sentencing. In 2007 at the age of 56, he composed and recorded a double CD album entitled Psalngs with the help of legendary record producer Brian Ahern. This is his first effort as a solo artist. Ahern gathered a studio band to produce the album which included Jim Keltner, Hutch Hutchinson, Greg Leisz, Patrick Warren, Dean Parks, Al Kooper, Matt Rollings and Mac McAnally. The entire album has been made available for free download on the Psalngs album website.
