The Paulines, Antenna

The Paulines
(Paris, FR - punk/garage rock)

Formed in Paris in 2023, The Paulines are a close-knit four-piece both onstage and off, featuring Dee (bass and vocals), Rodé and Jules (guitars), and Thomas (drums).

Drawing inspiration from the early punk movement of the late 1970s, post-punk and garage rock, the band writes its songs in a garage before unleashing them onstage in a burst of wild, unbridled energy. Their sound brings together the members’ varied influences, evoking the heyday of post-punk and garage rock and bands such as Joy Division, Siouxsie And The Banshees, The Cure, PIL, The Damned and The Libertines.

Club Nova

Club Nova came together in early 2025, when Milena Avetisyan (vocals) met Declan Cullen (bass, vocals) at La Cité U, an international student residence in Paris. Declan had just left his previous band and shared his idea of starting a new pop band with a rock edge. Milena was immediately on board. Shortly afterwards, Oliver Harper (guitar, vocals) and Augustin Bauer (drums) joined them, completing the lineup just in time for the release of their debut single, “Mesmerizing”, in June 2025.

Over the course of the year, the band released three singles and played their first shows in Paris, gaining live experience and a growing online following. Their music now blends British, French and Armenian influences into a sound that is both energetic and melodic. With new releases planned for 2026, Club Nova continues to explore new directions while staying true to its multicultural and pop roots.

Antenna
French rock with punk and pop influences

Antenna is a French rock band founded in Paris in June 2023 by vocalist Adri and guitarist Nokis, later joined by Léo on bass and Waffle on drums.

Antenna are four young musicians who look as though they have just stepped out of high school. Their image, at once innocent and provocative, conceals a need to pour their rage and emotions into music.

That rage takes shape in a visceral sound, driven by energetic riffs and rhythms that are intense yet infectious, ranging from sharp-edged punk rock to brighter touches of pop.

Antenna is the transmitter that carries their voice, their message and their energy as far as possible, reaching anyone who might find comfort in their airwaves. Discover them live at La Dame de Canton on 11 November 2026 at 7 pm.
