Lotus Blossom

Lotus Blossom is a french rock band from Paris, existing since the early 2000's ; the line-up has often changed, but it remains mainly Laurent Lanouziere's project. As a guitarist and singer, he founded it with Christine Guin, bass player, both working at the time at the same record store. Christine is still the official bass player for the band. Morgan Lanoë joined them in 2012 as a guitarist, but also as a singer and keyboard player. Other musicians occasionally participate in the project, such as the saxophonist Quentin Rollet (#1 EP) or Christine Lapouze, cellist for "Les Elles". The band defines itself as an entity with variable geometry, the positions being not fixed, the collective evolving through live shows and recordings. The band is told to be mainly influenced by The Velvet Underground, The 13th Floor Elevator, MC5 and the British scene from the late 80's/early 90's (essentially The Jesus and Mary Chain, and Spacemen 3).
