Very few are the rock connoisseurs who don’t know their name in France : maybe because they hung out with the Libertines, or maybe because they helped launch a whole new rock scene in France.
Mainly influenced by the 70s NY punk scene and the Stooges, they represented hope for anyone who craved a breath of fresh air. Amongst their supporters are Alan McGee, Andrew Loog Oldham and even Lou Reed. They toured France, England and the rest of Europe, made it to the SXSW festival in Texas and of course roamed the Parisian underground clubs from the begining till today.
Alongside Stevan, rhythm guitar, singer and songwriter, there is Xavier on the lead guitar, Clément on the drums and Nicolas on bass.
After their first EP "Alésia", their first album "Shaking the ashes of our enemies" recorded by Yarol poupaud for Bonus Tracks Records, clearly reflects their talent and creativity.
The video for their hit-single "Time for nothing more" has been viewed more than 30 000 times on Youtube. They also appeared in many magazines such as the NME, Nylon, ID, Rock n' Folk, Vogue...
After touring Europe for the promotion of their first album, they're preparing a new EP to be released early 2011.
