ALESIA COSMOS

is back !

​​With the reissue of ​the first two albums and a reunion concert, the French underground band returns more than 30 years later with new dynamic projects: a third album, concerts with variable geometry and projects to build with the programmers .
Always unclassifiable, Alesia Cosmos is propelled again in ​total musical freedom, crossbreedings, whacky humour and its limitless creativity that have never ceased to interest different generations of aficionados.
If you are interested in a future concert in your program, please contact us without delay!

Excerpts from records and concerts

Thanks to you, upcoming concerts

Alesia Cosmos can play in concert according to very different geometries. The group is open to one-off projects and collaborations. We are interested in all types of events and venues, from festival to small venues.
The hard core, the historical trio is composed of Marie-Berthe Servier  - voice, Pascal Holtzer and Bruno de Chénerilles - guitars, live electronics, voices. But we also play in duo, quartet or more and we can still imagine a new project with you.
We are open to any programming and project proposal. ​Please get in touch with us to talk about it :

Jacques Debout - Agitation Friite 3 - October 2018


​... Strange traffic from Alsace, with magnetic tapes and heteroclite instruments, between funk, free, onomatopoeia, oriental incantations and the distorted soundtrack of a horror film. Surprising, often arduous, some very pleasant ​moments.
Guitare Magazine - October 1983


... ​​Ideas are not lacking in ​Exclusivo! the first album of the Alsatian group, starting with the addition of a Tunisian percussionist. Musicians can create a disturbing, haunting atmosphere with a well-diversified sound texture ...
Jazz 360 - September 1983 - Suisse


I’m bored
In this shitty place
​I piss me off
​Soon I will break everything

My baby’s gone
She got it
What the fuck am I doing here?
