Formed in 2015 by Pierre-Olivier Poujade, Léo Therial, and Robin Massalongo, The AA was born as a side project merging diverse musical backgrounds around a shared passion for indie rock infused with intergenerational influences — from new wave and cold wave to psychedelic rock. Quickly noticed on the French scene, the trio was propelled onto the lineups of major festivals such as John Beauregard and Garorock following their first two releases (EP – Blue Crocuses, 2016 and LP – Can Care Less, 2020). The project then solidified into a full-fledged band with the arrival of Steeven De Castro and Benjamin Marsan. Today, The AA channels the raw energy of rock with refined songwriting, exploring the space between razor-sharp riffs and atmospheric textures, where reverberated breaths meet synthetic screams.
