dolls can't is an alternative rock band, which sculpts organic, visceral works. Its mechanics opens the doors of a surrealistic and familiar universe at the same time. You can meet psychedelic characters dressed with poetry in it. These stringless puppets draw space without boundaries while revendicating influences from tool, Radiohead and The Mars Volta. Here, songs are experienced through the five senses.

dolls can't has always lived in Pierre-Yves Ponsin’s mind. Together, they feed off of music, travel and above all life. Pierre-Yves patiently affirms lyrics and compositions, as well as his own experience as a musician at the Music Academy International of Nancy and in different projects. These last projects have brought him to Strasbourg, where he met Hervé Andrione, Vincent Sexauer and Louis Ernst, who were training at the Conservatory in the Music Improvisation Department.
