Stéphanie Blanchoud is a Belgian-Swiss actor, writer, and musician who moves effortlessly between theatre, film, and music.

Her artistic universe — both poetic and engaged — moves, touches, and invites everyone to reflect.
Salomé Dewaels is a Brussels-based actor who lets her freedom, intuition, and sense of authenticity guide her. She broke through in 2021 with Xavier Giannoli’s Illusions perdues and moves audiences with a presence that is both radiant and deeply human.

Together with Raphaële Germser on bass and Audrey Dechèvre on drums, she delivers raw, unpolished rock where dark poetry, cutting riffs, and restrained rage converge. Moving between whisper and roar, Lou K explores fear, darkness, and violence, transforming them into a tangible, physical, and deeply liberating force.
