This week. Different years. Same band. 30 years on stage. Brussels based. Jaune Toujours.
Some weeks slip by without a post.
We’ve been busy keeping projects moving, making music and making sure things keep going. The 30-year journey is still here, though. We’ll be catching up a little faster from now on. And this particular stretch of the calendar has quite a few stories to tell.

1998–2004 Leuven. Brussels. Radio Scorpio. VUB. Stuc. KVS. Radio studios. Sport days. Theatre stages.
2006–2009 Halle. Brussels. Luxembourg. Molenbeek. Objekt 5. Het Salon. Radio 1. 0110. Me You Zik. BXL Bravo. A mini-concert here. A festival there.
2011–2013 Dudelange. Saint-Gilles. Eeklo. Balen. A debate about cycling. A Kids Special. Bal Moderne. Fiesta Mundial. Music, conversation and dancing finding their way into the same calendar.
2016 Brussels. Ninove. Meet Mixity. Plomblom. Samson joins the band on krar. An interview in the radio van. And in Ninove, the local fanfare Yah Tararah! joins Jaune Toujours on stage.
2018 Ancienne Belgique. Brussels. EUROPEANA. A release concert. The horn section in full swing. Dirk singing. Yamen getting the audience involved. Piet on accordion. Jo on electric violin. And a crowd that doesn’t seem particularly interested in letting the band leave the stage.
2022 Louvain-la-Neuve. Alterez-vous. A backstage selfie. Piet, Dirk and Yamen. Three familiar faces, very much at home in each other’s company.
2024 Ancienne Belgique. Brussels. Back at the AB for the release of VERTIGO. Mattias on piccolo flute. Bart turning a coffee cup into a trumpet mute. And Piet singing into the yellow light.

Different years. Different line-ups. Different ways of making a concert happen. The calendar keeps filling up. The music keeps finding its way into new rooms. Still playing. Still showing up. And catching up with ourselves along the way.
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.
