Festival Dranouter, Cirque Stage
Jaune Toujours came with the intention to blow the roof off… and thanks to the audience's energy, they did just that. The Cirque stage turned into a whirlwind of rhythm, joy and pure connection.
Big love to everyone present for the warmest welcome and wildest response.

Batich Ahmar - red melon, or water melon in Arabic - is a track Yamen Martini composed when 3’Ain was invited by Merodefestival for a residency at Abdij van Park in Heverlee (Leuven).The trio spent a couple of days creating, arranging and rehearsing at the attic of the abbey’s guest quarters, under the impressive oak trussed roof from the 2nd half of the 17th century.
At the end of the residency they decided to have Batich Ahmar recorded and filmed in the « Pandgang », one of the white corridors around the serene square courtyard connecting essential parts of the monastery, filling it with their worldwide jazz, blending tradition and improvisation in an unique own sound.
The live captation of Batich Ahmar dropped on YouTube!

Big love to everyone who came out and connected with the band and their music! And to those who messaged they couldn’t make it because they were celebrating the very first Pride in Limburg: respect and support, always !
Massive thanks to the top-notch crew on stage, sound, and lights, the volunteers who welcomed us backstage and the organisers for having Jaune Toujours!
