About Me |
|
Les Cousins We are not much but we do. From a land suffocated by pop radio and reality T.V., we are Les Cousins. The ones who sat next to you in front of the T.V. When our parents were too busy ignoring us and wondering how they could acquire more. We are the Cousins, softly outspoken, walking the middle way, smoking our creativity, drinking our passion, playing our heartbeats and algorithms. What have we become? Les Cousins. We play music for one lonely person who by default has come to understand they are isolated and alone, yet if they hear our songs, realize they were never alone in their suffering. Compassion is the key that will unlock our minds to our interdependence. The ever evolving Cousins. We are now four. We play chill, laid back; some times political, mostly aesthetical, psychedelic, love induced melodies, harmonies, and rhythms. We are from the origins of music, all that is intrinsically human, since the Stone Age, we have left drumming marks as old as 70,000 years old. Our Cousins had rhythm... We believe what separates them from us, is our ability to sing to a rhythmic beat. If you can sing together, you can dance together, by singing and playing music we create the ultimate destiny of humans. And we create group solidarity and coordinate beats and song, which create strength and unity. We sing, We play instruments. Patriotic Music proclaims one's territory, bonding troops. We play to release the bond, and accept the song. Les Cousins are people and their people, if such a thing exists.We are available for Parties, Weddings, and Funerals, and anywhere else that you would invite your Cousins.
