Biography

Plastiscines are a female rock band from Saint-Cyr-l’École, France. Katty Besnard, Marine Neuilly and Zazie Tavitian met each other in Mansart High School where they bonded over their love of rock ‘n’ roll music. After they went to see several gigs together, they decided to form a band.

In 2004, they met Louise Basilien at a Libertines gig, and she then became the bassist. Et voila, the band was complete : Katty (singer & guitar), Marine (guitar), Louise (bass) and Zazie (drums).
Listening to The Beatles, they took their name “Plastiscines” from a lyric in the song “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds”.

After the release of their first album, LP1, Zazie left the band because she felt like she was not a strong enough drummer. Caroline was hired as a replacement for the tour, but was not an official member of the band. During the recording of their sophomore album, About Love, Anaïs Vandevyvere joined the band as the newest drummer. She continues to be a member to this day.

In February 2011, Marine left the band. Katty, Louise and Ana have continued as a three piece band, and as of March 2012 are currently in the studio working on their third album.
