We recorded them with Frank on drums and myself doing all the guitars, bass, vocals and keyboards. We got really excited; we felt we had something good and strong. It was like a new beginning for the band,” explains Pilou, who lately has been heard singing for DJ Champion. These two experimented musicians created a catchy and heart-stopping pop-rock who caught the attention of some of the most influential people in the music biz. The results were quick to come as both musicians saw some of their songs being chosen in video games, ads and televisions series, all of which before their first album was out.

Their names have been associated with Yann Perreau, Marie-Jo Therio, Dobacaracol, Arian
