Band
Poni Hoax

"Poni Hoax" are a French electronic music act. The four musicians in Poni Hoax met while studying at the Conservatoire Nationale de Musique in Paris; upon leaving school, keyboardist Laurent Bardainne, guitarist Nicolas Villebrin, bassist Arnaud Roulin, and drummer Vincent Taeger continued experimental rehearsals on their own time while working as studio and tour band musicians. A meeting between Bardainne and the stylish Franco-Cambodian singer ... Nicolas Ker in a local bar brought the band a charismatic frontman in the camp-cool mode of early Bryan Ferry. The band is heralded for their unique sound that comes from having two keyboardists, Arnaud Roulin and Laurent Bardainne, combined with a more traditional pop/rock rhythmic provided by Nicolas Villebrun on guitar, and Vincent Taeger on drums and percussion. Poni Hoax have listed The Doors and The Rolling Stones as the only influences the entire band enjoys listening to. See more [+]
