Sébastien Tellier is an exceptional, highly personal & intimate artist echoing such other one-offs as Robert Wyatt, Syd Barrett or Serge Gainsbourg. An individual, an indomitable post mortal, a Parisian poet and a wild man of many talents.
Born and raised in Paris’ 17th Arrondissement his father played with nihilist French prog rockers, Magma whilst Sebastien’s own talents first came to light in 1999, when his recordings came to the attention of Air’s Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoit Dunckel and their management Marc Tessier and Stephane Elfassi. Their professional friendship blossomed and Tellier went onto tour with the band the following year and signed to Tessier and Elfassi’s label, Record Makers.
