En prévision de notre Choux-Fest [04042020] | VK (obtenez vos tickets! ), nous partagerons de notre vaste archive d'expériences dans les semaines à venir.

Aujourd'hui, une série de photos de Mec Yek, prise par Sarah Baur en 2002. Comme vous pouvez le constater, dans la formation précoce Katarina Pohlodkova n'a pas encore été rejointe par sa sœur Milka Pohlodkova au chant, mais par son amie Luba Macova, qui a décidé après un moment qu'une carrière de chant n'était pas son truc.
Heureusement Milka était heureuse de rejoindre le groupe et est toujours l'une des deux chanteuse en ce jour.
D'autres musiciens sur la photo sont Piet Maris, Mathieu Verkaeren et Mattias Laga dans une version plus jeune.

Venez écouter Mec Yek au Choux-Fest !

20 years of Choux de Bruxelles - artist collective, that makes for quite an archive of experiences in music, theatre, film and photography.
Building up to our birthday bash Choux-Fest [04042020] | VK (get your tickets!), it's our pleasure to share some of them here in the weeks to come.
Today, we look back in black and white on a gig by Jaune Toujours in June 2001 in the port of Brussels called "Musette au fil de l'eau". Little did we know that we would install our headquarters across the water a few years later.
Bert Bernaerts was still a member of the band back then. He moved on to perform in youth theatre with Zonzo Compagnie and directs the marching band HOP FROG Fanfare.
