A cult figure in science fiction and comic made in France, comic creator Philippe Druillet will team up with the electrocosmic group Zombie Zombie to offer a concert created from futuristic images in Paris in May.
The inspirational author of many graphic novels and stories, whose influence far exceeds the borders of his home country, France, Philippe is also the co-founder of the publishing house Les Humanoïdes Associés and the magazine Métal Hurlant.
He recently created the album cover for Livity, the latest album of Zombie Zombie, a cosmic electro trio formed by Étienne Jaumet, (the well-nicknamed) Cosmic Néman and Dr. Schönberg.
He partners on this event with Dimitri Avramoglou to design the visual dressing of an unprecedented show by the Zombie Zombie group, combining futuristic images and hypnotic rhythms.
Welcome to the Fourth Dimension!
• Philippe Druillet & Zombie Zombie Sunday 21st May 2023 — 7.00 p.m. at the Paris Philharmonic | Book tickets here
