Raine Maida, born Michael Raine Maida, is the front man of the Canadian rock band Our Lady Peace. He dropped the 'Michael' in his name in order to avoid confusion with Mike Turner, the (now ex-)guitarist of Our Lady Peace. He was born on February 18, 1970 in Weston, Ontario, Canada. His parents split up when he was still very young. He has a half brother named Adam, who is 18 years younger than he is. Prior to pursuing a musical career, Maida studied criminology at the University of Toronto. He married Winnipeg, Manitoba singer and songwriter Chantal Kreviazuk in December, 1999. On January 16, 2004 their son, Rowan Michael K. Maida, was born. Their second child, a boy named Lucca Jon, was born on June 3, 2005.
Maida has been co-producing music since 1999, when he co-produced Our Lady Peace's albums Happiness... Is Not A Fish That You Can Catch and Spiritual Machines. In 2004, he also co-wrote and produced five tracks on Avril Lavigne's sophomore album Under My Skin.
