Ceux Qui Marchent Debout, godfathers of modern brass bands, tireless groovers and certified globetrotters (40 countries visited), need no introduction.
After a 32-year career, 10 albums and over 1,500 concerts, Ceux Qui Marchent Debout are still making the planet dance. Funk is their style. Whether it's second line, Go-Go, P-funk or Rocksteady (Jamaican soul), it's at the heart of all their compositions. Having rubbed shoulders with the great names of the genre (Maceo Parker, Fred Wesley, Bootsy Collins, The Neville Brothers) and even jammed a few tracks with Joeystarr at the Olympia in 2007, CQMD confirm that funk is synonymous with joie de vivre and eternal youth!
Their relaxed, energetic show, peppered with descents into the audience, is always a delight for dancers the world over. “You'll have to get used to it, CQMD is the best French funk band in the world” (Stan Cuesta - Rock&Folk). Quite a program.
