This Parisian band has been formed in 2012 when Charles de Boisseguin, music critic at that time, start to compose and sample pieces to understand and judge music better : the adventure begins! Afterwards he is joined by 4 partners : Hagni Gwon (keyboards), David Gaugué (bass guitar), Achille Trocellier (electric guitar) et Tom Daveau (drums). Their first EP L’Impératrice comes out the same year. Followed two years later by Sonate Pacific. Flore Benguigui joined them in 2015 and brings to the band a new instrument : her voice. From this collaboration born the Odyssée EP.
