About

FRENCH DOCTORS is a collective of live improvised music founded by 5 French musicians imbued with complementary energies and attitudes. Their connections and friendships have crossed paths many times in studios or on stage until they gathered in Paris in 2003 as the first french incarnation of Damo Suzuki’s Network, released later as « Hollyaris » by the legendary CAN performer. In 2004 the French Doctors recorded several hours of music while in residence at Les Instants Chavirés. Stuck in a time warp for nearly seven years, those lost tapes eventually cropped up and soon took the shape (materialized as) of an LP « Au chevet des blessés » released by Ronda in 2012. Also since 2007 Borgo, de Quengo and Marmin, joined by Anla Courtis of Reynols, perform as L’Autopsie A Révélé Que La Mort Etait Due A L’Autopsie.
