Exsonvaldes

Exsonvaldes, a trio formed at high school by Simon Beaudoux, Martin Chourrout and Antoine Bernard, returns to the stage at La Boule Noire in Paris on April 8, 2026 to promote their sixth album, Ninety Seconds to Midnight. Since their beginnings, these Parisians have been carving out their path in indie rock: a noteworthy debut album, L’Aérotrain as a French touchstone, European tours, a pause, then a comeback in 2023 with Maps. Today they reconnect with a rawer sound nourished by the ’90s: clean guitars, direct energy, openly acknowledged influences from Nirvana or Grandaddy. Signed for the first time to V2, the band moves forward with songs of raw nerve, clear melodies and lyrics that confront the present without détour. In concert, Exsonvaldes blends new material and standout tracks without excess, with a sense of form that holds the tension from beginning to end. The result is a trio balanced between the signposts of their early days and a firmly rooted present.
