Biography:

Formed in Nice in 1992 around Sébastien (vocals), Franck (guitar), Chrys (bass) and Roma (drums), Corpus Delicti immediately made their mark with a rock style rarely heard in France, with their debut album ‘Twilight’ (1993) becoming a benchmark for the genre. Fusing the best of post-punk with remarkable ener- gy, creativity and melody, the band won acclaim abroad with a 10-date US tour and concerts in Europe. After two more perfect albums, the band broke up in 1997.

 23 years later, with their popularity having grown steadily over the years, the original quartet was reunited when they signed with the American label Cleopatra, who were preparing to reissue the band’s catalogue. Roma, no longer able to play for health reasons, will be replaced by Laurent Tamagno, drummer for M83 among others.

​At the end of 2022, Corpus Delicti finally came back to life live, with a series of concerts and sell-outs all over the world: Paris (La Maroquinerie), London, Madrid, Athens, Rome .... and a Mexican tour culmi- nating in a sold-out concert in front of 1,200 people in Mexico City. This was followed by major summer festivals in Germany, Portugal and Belgium, in front of thousands of people.

2023 ended with another sold-out in Nice, France, their hometown, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the first album "Twilight".
