EOSINE (Be)

The new Belgian gem

Eosine is a four-piece from Liège (Belgium) and, are for not much longer, the best-kept secret of the Walloon indie scene.

Formed by now 21-year-old Elena Lacroix (vocals, guitar), the band also consists of Dima Fontaine (guitar, vocals), Benjamin Fransen (drums) and Brieuc Verstraete (bass, vocals). Eosine’s songs start from the wall of sound and ethereal sounds of shoegaze, emphasising progressive structures, chiselled vocal harmonies and forthright melodies, which fans of My Bloody Valentine, Lush and Psychotic Monks will love. Their live shows are fiery and psychedelic, and this was also felt at the Concours Circuit, a renowned music contest in the French speaking part of Belgium, where they snatched first prize, in 2022. With their controlled, but sometimes cathartic frenzy, Eosine have already been allowed to open for The Haunted Youth, DITZ, Lambrini Girls and at the farewell concert of Belgian indie icon BRNS in the Rotonde of Le Botanique, Brussels. They also performed at festivals such as Left Of The Dial (Rotterdam), Les Nuits Botanique (Brussels) and – cherry on the cake! – Dour Festival. And now they play at the Roots & Roses festival.  

2024: Eosine is selected for the famous Humo Rock Rally (which put bands like Deus and Absynthe Minded on the map).
