Blake is the visionary 18th-century english poet, but it’s also the name of the french band that has set his poems to music. This is how Blake's poetic genius has been turned into current musical works, served by an unusual formation: singing, violin, double bass, drums, guitars, keyboards, mandolin, banjo ...

Since the first shows in 2007, the band has come a long way and released 4 albums. It is now the only band in the world to have set to music all of William Blake’s Songs (Songs of Innocence & Songs of Experience). After this long period of work and composition, the group is now willing to make their work known internationally!

For the release of the 4th album, the group organizes a release on all platforms around a beautiful music & illustrations project, along with fourteen visual artists.

They are now aiming for the year 2027: the bicentenary of William Blake’s death. And the countdown has already started: after the album IV. Here & Now was released in 2024, the remastered version of III. Heathen & Heaven will be released on platforms by the end of 2025 (12/12). That's enough to take us to 2027 with one album of {Blake} per year.

After two decades keeping the poet’s legacy alive, and two centuries after his death, the adventure will come to an end in London, with an event tour (currently being organised).
