Indochine

French new wave/rock band, formed in 1981 by Nicola Sirkis and Dominique Nicolas in Paris. Soon they were joined by Dimitri Bodianski, and a little bit later by Sirkis' twin brother, Stéphane Sirkis. Since then, the band has gone through several line-up changes. There is only one person remaining of the original line-up, Nicola Sirkis. Bodianski left the band in 1989 and Stéphane Sirkis died in 1999. The band found a new life in 2002 ("Paradize" LP) with the addition of guitarist / keyboardist / arranger / composer Olivier Gérard (aka Oli de Sat).
