Jaune Toujours 30y on stage: Some weeks are all about summer.

This week. Different years. Same band. 30 years on stage. Brussels based. Jaune Toujours.
Some weeks are all about summer. Festivals. Roads. Ferries. Train stations. Backstages that are anything but glamorous.

2003 Førde. Norway. Concert halls. Town squares. Breakfast concerts on a bridge. One festival becoming many performances.
2005 Portsmouth. Festival of the Sea. The van. The crew. Another harbour. Another stage.
2007 Couleur Café. Brussels. A special one.
2008 Rudolstadt. Thousands of people. Brass. Movement. A crowd that seemed to stretch to the horizon.
2011 AfroBelBeat begins. A first press shoot with our friends from Gangbé Brass Band. The start of a collaboration that would lead to concerts, recordings and lasting friendships.
2023 Fusion Festival. Lärz. From hauling every case to the station...to unpacking them again in a truck that doubled as backstage. The glamorous side of touring. 
2024 The final mixes for Vertigo. One step closer.
2025 Mechelen. Ottertrotter. Funny faces backstage. Brass on stage. Thirty years of stories. And somehow, we’re still making new ones.

Different places. Same week, stretched across time. We don’t archive the past. We carry it. Still playing. Still moving. Still open to the next room.

One more thing…
We realised Norway in 2003 deserved more than a couple of slides. There were simply too many beautiful views, strange adventures and wonderfully ridiculous moments to squeeze into this carousel.

So this weekend, we’re taking you back to Førde for a special photo diary.
