Ma Valise
The band was born in 1999 and has already played more than 400 gigs (80 gigs on 2006 !) and playing on stage is actually what drove their evolution during those years.
Now that they've made more than 40 gigs abroad (Germany, Bosnia, Marocco) their will to play in foreign countries has become bigger than ever ! They're planning a second tour in Germany from the 27th of april and the 12th of may, and some other tour dates are going up soon : Romania, United Kingdom, Canada, Bosnia, Marocco, Ecuador, Panama,...
Discography
With their first long lenght album "Noroc !" (4000 ex) the band tastes the enjoyment of recording music. Their musical abilities exploded as you can hear on their second album "Bon Bagay !" released on april 2005 (4500 ex). The band doesn't limit itself by singing in french only and from that point their music starts to sound like no other. Their creativity sparkles on this disc and among the french musical scene. And now it's the new album "Maya Yé !" in november 2007. More rock and more world !
Rock & World music
Ma valise created a proper musical style beyond frontiers, inbetween world music and rock. The musicians who grew up as close freinds and who discovered music at the same time grab musical influences out of many different cultures and put them together to form a very warm travelling music. Gipsy dances, french traditional music, dub, hip hop, cumbia,...
They take inspirations everywhere and blend them with the energy of the rock'n roll the grew up listening to.
A band full of eclectic projects
Always willing to meet new people, to share musical moments with other bands, Ma Valise is determined to play everywhere in France and further on if possible. This is also why the members of the band are deeply involved in many projects in association with lots of people : They set up big tops, they take part in the organisation of festivals mixing puppets, music, video and art decoration... This is a real way of life for them that they manage to traduce in their songs and this is also a way to escape from the musical routine : rehersals/road/shows/hotel... Ma Valise is more than a band and they spread their positive energy everywhere they go !
Encounters
Ma Valise shared many project with other bands: They played with a Romanian trio, recorded a song with the band « Rue d'la Gouaille » and another one with the band « Craft», they invited F . Bellayer on their german tour to play guitar and mandolin, they've played live on several artistic shows...
They work with Noé and Titus as soundmen, Jack doing the light show, and their team is up for many new adventures in the future.
