The Cousins

The Cousins were a Belgian rock & roll group of the late fifties and early sixties who were among the first to successfully export "rock & roll" music from Belgium. They played Shadows-like music and also had a stage act which resembled that of The Shadows.

Started off at the end of the fifties as "La Jeune Equipe", their main occupation was playing at the birthday parties of the rich and noble. They changed their name to "Les Cousins" when they were asked to perform in a club with the same name on the 14th of July (French fête nationale).
