LAZULI
The middle of Rock is not conducive to the export of the language of Molière, as we know, but Lazuli erases the borders. In a few years, the group has become the ambassador of France on the biggest international stages of Progressive Rock. His notes and words have become universal language. Heir to Peter Gabriel and other Pink Floyd, the Gardois group is distinguished by its singularity, its unusual instrumentation and the invention of a unique instrument: La Léode. Somewhere between rock, song, electro and world, the atypical music of Lazuli, dreamlike, explorer, takes us off the beaten track. Lazuli envisions his songs as canvases, mixing colors, depicting his world or repainting it. Somewhere between Jacques Prévert and Tim Burton, words question the evils of the present time. The airy, funambulistic voice, all in puns, sings to us of man in all his forms and his “deforms”. Alternately we hover or we are caught in the turmoil, time is suspended or accelerates...
FRANCIS DECAMPS DELIRIUM
Francis Décamps, born May 17, 1952 in Héricourt, was the main composer and keyboardist of the French progressive rock group ANGE from 1970 to 1995.
Group he created with his brother Christian. Francis innovates by deciding to personalize his organ in order to give it a unique sound which will greatly contribute to creating the group's identity.
Enigmatic and theatrical artist and beast of the stage, for 25 years he will contribute to the international success of the group. In 1995 he decided to leave ANGE by going out the front door at the end of the memorable A...Dieu tour which ended at the Zénith de Paris in December 1995.
He then took a few sabbaticals to recharge his batteries, then began to compose for other artists. He also puts his skills and experience at the service of young talents or groups in career development.
He became more and more prolific and multiplied his experiences, becoming in turn director and creator for various projects, in particular three musical comedies, "Le
Time for a Moon" (SHINTO) "Le Banc" (with teenagers from priority neighborhoods), "Beauty and the Beast the return" (the Generations Stars troupe).
From 2005 to 2007, he worked more closely with Jean-Philippe SUZAN, composed and produced his first single as well as his album before deciding to create the group GENS DE LA LUNE together.
Created in 2005, GENS DE LA LUNE released its final opus on February 12, 2021 before disbanding following 2 farewell concerts in Epinal and Giromagny in March 2021.
The group was formed before its separation from:
Jean-Philippe SUZAN (vocals and percussion)
Damien CHOPARD (guitars, vocals, accordion)
Mathieu DESBARATS (bass)
Ced MELLS (drums, percussion)
Francis DECAMPS (keyboards, vocals, accordion, electro-acoustic guitar)
Francis Décamps resumed his solo career and released on May 17, 2022, accompanied by his friend and accomplice Pascal Gutman, the album "Bien Au-Delà Du Délire". Album which completely revisits the mythical work of the group Ange. This opus closes the chapter of the triptych of the first 3 albums of Ange revisited by Francis on the occasion of these 70 years and 50 years of the group Ange.
At the same time, Francis DECAMPS released his first novel "A very simple life or almost", a novel written on the life of his now deceased mother.

OVERHEAD
Overhead are a progressive rock band from Finland whose successful releases and live performances across Europe have catapulted the band to the top of the Finnish hierarchy. Overhead has played extensively for over twenty years at festivals and clubs in Germany, France, UK, Italy, etc. sharing the stage with bands like Nick Mason, Saucerful of Secrets, Spock's Beard, Anathema, Threshold and Tangerine Dream to name a few.
After a string of critically acclaimed albums, Overhead are back with their long-awaited double studio album “Telepathic Minds”! Overhead's strongest musical album yet, featuring progressive, sonic landscapes and long, epic pieces with strong melodies, groovy riffs and catchy choruses. Lyrically, the album echoes the turbulent times it was created amid the pandemic and war in Europe. "Telepathic Minds" is available as a Double CD Digipack, Double Vinyl LP and on all digital streaming and download platforms. It is the group's first double album and the first album available on vinyl.
Overhead was formed in 1999 and released a trilogy of studio albums: "Zumanthum" (2002), "Metaepitome" (2005) and "And We're Not Here After All" (2008). The works, released by French label "Musea", have received excellent reviews, airplay and worldwide recognition. The success of the albums led the group to tour rock clubs and Prog festivals in Europe. The release of Of Sun and Moon (2012) further expanded the band's sound. The album was followed by several gigs and Overhead was shown at festivals in the UK (Summer End) and Italy (Veruno Prog Fest) for the first time. The fifth studio album Haydenspark (2018) was a successful return to the more progressive style and it was very well received by fans and critics, followed by live dates across Europe. On its twentieth anniversary in 2019, Overhead were the first Finnish band to play Europe's biggest progressive rock festival "Night of the Prog" in the legendary Loreley Amphitheater in Germany. During the pandemic, Overhead continued to write and record their new album, and in the midst of recording, taking the opportunity to perform at the Artrock festival in Germany. Having finished recording, the group returns to France at the end of 2022 to play at the Crescendo and Prog festivals in Beauce. And now with much anticipation from the fans Overhead releases their 'magnum' opus: the double album 'Telepathic Minds', which sounds better than ever!

ADX
On this blessed day of March 1982, ADX was born in a gray region of Picardy. After several concerts,
the speed metal that the group delivers does not leave the public indifferent and attracts the Devil's record label which will sign the
group in 1985 for the recording of the album " Exécution " which remains to this day the power of what can
give ADX.
The group occurs everywhere in France and the reception of the fans is made more and more vast and in 1987 the label Sydney
production realizes how big ADX is getting and offers the band a three-album deal, “ La
terreur », « Suprématie » et « Exécution publique which will be recorded during a memorable concert at the
Mutualité de Paris in 1987. ADX grew in size and in May 1989, the group was called upon for the
replacement of Motörhead at the Zénith de Paris whose performance will attract the greed of international labels
like Noise and Roadrunner, the choice is difficult and it is Noise who will sign the group for the album “ Weird
visions ” recorded in Berlin in 1990 and sung in the language of Shakespeare. Despite this change of direction
and a tour with Gamma Ray, our lads do not meet with the hoped-for success and decide to separate.
More than three years after this clash and under the pressure of the fans, the group resumes service and releases a new
pressage de « Exécution » et en 98 la sortie de « Résurrection » suivit dans la foulée from a best of “ In Memorium ”
and a live “ VIII ème sentence ” recorded at the Summum de Grenoble. The group turns everywhere, gets tired and under
the tension some members of the group decide to end the adventure which allows other duelists
to join the team and embark on a new adventure and to release from this merger the album “ Division
armored ” which will be a hit as soon as it is released. The very remarkable appearance at Hellfest and other European festivals
will open the way to new lands where ADX will leave its indelible mark.
In 2012 the release of " Immortel " will leave a bitter taste in the group, a tragedy, the evil eye, the end of a
time, the group separated from one of the guitarist and bassist to revitalize in 2014 with " Ultimatum " signed
at Verycords where we find the touch of the first albums that made ADX famous and thanks to this new impetus,
the group performs in Germany, Canada, Greece, Belgium, Italy and Sweden, the sacred fire is there
et on ressent un côté plus « trash » avec en 2016 la sortie de « Non Serviam » and its share of hymn to metal.
ADX has always found the necessary ingredients to make songs that are fast, technical and melodic.
accompanied by historical and fantastic lyrics, it is the label and the style of the group and the mastery is
recognizable by a good number of followers and what to say in 2020 of the fabulous album " Bestial ", everything is there and everything
is said but one thing was still missing, ADX still had a promise to keep, the French version of " Weird
visions ”, re-recorded and somewhat polished under the sweet title of “ Etranges visions_8df6fbcc-43d3-3d99-a511-2eb009ed8a1”
with a warm welcome, the adventure continues and despite the years, the blade slices again and again...

GALAAD
Created in 1988 in Moutier, in the Swiss Jura, Galaad first died out at the beginning of 97, leaving two orphan albums, "First February" in 1992 and especially "Vae Victis", an album which, in 1995, made the group recognized on a larger scale, especially for its innovative qualities in the progressive genre. Galaad gives this style - really popular in the 70s - a note of renewal. The poetic texts in French are melted into metal and groove, the group explores pop rock by giving it a unique form. In 2016, Galaad reformed in its almost original version, with Sébastien Froidevaux on guitar, Gianni Giardiello on keyboards, Gérard Zuber on bass, Laurent Petermann on drums and Pierre-Yves Theurillat on vocals. After a few concerts, including the Chant du Gros Festival 2017, Galaad embarked on the development of a third album, more than twenty years after "Vae Victis", entitled "FRAT3R", promoted by a small tour in France. It was succeeded two years later by "Paradis Posthumes", in May 2021. Albums hailed by chroniclers such as Hervé Picart (Best), Xavier Châtagnon (Rock n Folk), Thierry Busson (Rock Style), Henry Dumatray (Hard Force) and more recently Stéphane Auzilleau (Rock Hard), and many others.
The group has performed more than 250 times on stage, notably following the release of Vae Victis in 1996 with a tour throughout French-speaking Switzerland and a few incursions into France, in Paris in particular, at the Bataclan in the first part of Pendragon in front of thousand people. Earlier, in 1990, Galaad opened for Ange, and later shared the stage with artists and bands like Calvin Russell, Les Garçons Bouchers, Pete Trewavas and Ian Mosley (the rhythm section of Marillion), Trust , or even soon Francis Décamps to name but a few.

ASIA MINOR
ASIA MINOR is a Franco-Turkish progressive rock band, founded by two Turkish students living in
Paris in the 1970s: Setrak Bakırel and Eril Tekeli. After several years of musical experiences
separated, in rock style for the first and jazz for the second, Setrak (vocals and guitars) and Eril
(guitars and flute) met in Istanbul in 1971 to found their group Layla, to which
awarded four national prizes, notably for composition and arrangements.
When they arrived in Paris in 1973, they founded their new group Asia Minor Process which, after a
number of staff movements, eventually stabilized with the arrival of Lionel Beltrami
(drums & percussion). It was then that they decided to shorten their name to Asia Minor. In
October 1978, the group recorded their first album, "Crossing The Line", with outside support
by Nicolas Vicente on keyboards.
Shortly after its release, a fourth musician, Robert Kempler (keyboards, bass & backing vocals), joined the
group, configuration in which Asia Minor appeared on national television for 2 performances
live. During 1980, the album "Crossing The Line" began to be regularly broadcast on the
official and “pirate” radio waves at the same time as several concerts took place in Paris and
Parisian region. In July 1980, Asia Minor decided to record their second album, "Between
Flesh and Divine” which, like the first one, was entirely conceived, produced and distributed by the band itself.

After a few months of self-promotion, the group signed a distribution contract in August 1981 with
Safari Ambiance was then able to sell its records on the British, Canadian and Japanese markets by
through an English dealer, Andy Garibaldi. Although all pressed copies have ended
by running out, the group decided to separate after a final concert in February 1982, defeated by the
weariness and disillusionment at a time of the rise of the punk movement.
It was more than 30 years later that, given the number of “fans” who still seemed to appreciate their
music on the Internet and social networks, Bakırel, Tekeli, Beltrami and Kempler decided to
reform the group, soon joined by Evelyne Kandel on bass to allow Kempler to
focus on keyboards. After a number of concerts in various festivals and venues
show, Kempler left the group in 2017, followed by Beltrami in 2019 for health reasons. They
were replaced respectively by Micha Rousseau and Julien Tekeyan, configuration in which they
entered the studio at the end of 2019 to record their third self-produced album, “Points of Libration”.
Kempler then returned to keyboards and with the addition of Camille Bigeault on drums, Asia Minor
produced on stage at the beginning of September 2022 as part of the “2Days Prog + 1” festival in Veruno, Italy
as well as at the Zèbre de Belleville in Paris.
Asia Minor's music is at the crossroads of rich and varied influences mixing progressive rock
western, rock and jazz with Middle Eastern-inspired rhythms and melodies in an effort
sincere to create quality music, whether in terms of composition, atmosphere or
of expressiveness. The band's music sounds by turns dark and imperious, melancholy and
sensual, dynamic and contrasting. Beautiful, powerful and original themes are enriched
by an intricacy of subtle arrangements, enhanced by a song that is both nostalgic and moving.
The flute parts, dynamic or airy, underline the rough or lyrical notes of the
guitars. A melancholy and sometimes wild music, on texts written mainly in
English, sometimes in Turkish.
In summary, music conducive to reverie and spiritual escape, which also lends itself to a
some introspection.

RIVAGE
Rivage is a Norman hard-rock band based in Rouen. At the rendezvous of bluesy and aggressive riffs and poetic texts exclusively in French. Combine brutality and softness, a tasty contrast allowing the quintet to offer compositions with rich and varied influences. Inspired by groups from the 80s such as Sortilège, Accept, Trust or Mötley Crüe, Rivage seeks to offer a modernized sound, retaining certain sounds of the great classics of the genre. Very young on the rock scene, the group founded in October 2021 has already released its first EP "Le Sentier aux Épines" in January 2023.

MOTHER & PEARL
Mother & Pearl, founded in 2005 and active live since 2008, is a safe bet in the Lyon region, with its furious metal groove
and its intense concerts.
After launching with a very prog metal demo in 2008, the group found their style on their first album "Inner Voice", released
in 2013 at Brennus / Symbol Muzik. Rough and effective riffs, a duo of saturated / melodic voices, guitar solos
incisive, a sense of contrast, Mother & Pearl honors its references, from Machine Head to Pantera, from Opeth to Arch Enemy, from Lamb
of God at Freak Kitchen.
A second album, "Psycho Thrill", published in 2017, drives the point home: more compact, more powerful, it takes the listener by the throat,
with an even bigger sound, and an emphasis on the lyrics and the expressiveness of the song: evocation of the multiple facets of the
personality and the difficulty of making them cohabit, painful personal experiences, fictions, these disillusioned themes
direct the music towards an even darker universe. The mastering is entrusted to the German studio Kohlekeller (Benighted,
Powerwolf, Crematory...) and the cover to the English horror photographer Danielle Tunstall.
Over the years, Mother & Pearl weaves its web and secures a presence in the metal media: chronicles on the main
specialized webzines, twice in the monthly Rock Hard, a special evening on Radio Metal and many passages and
interviews on regional radios and web radios.
Concerts, the group's privileged field of expression have always gone upmarket following the album "Psycho
Thrilling”. After scouring the Lyon underground, Mother & Pearl opened for Blazing War Machine (Franky Costanza) in 2018,
for the Tambours du Bronx at Ninkasi Kao in Lyon in 2021, participates in several festivals: Leymfest in Ain with Nightmare
and Sangdragon in 2018, Springbreak Fest in Saint-Etienne in 2019, with Black Bomb A, Banane Metalik, Deathawaits, Eight Sins...
Lions Metal Fest in 2022, with Fleshgod Apocalypse, Gorod, Destinity, Carcariass, Xaon...
Having become a faithful of the mythical Rock n' Eat in Lyon (8 passages between 2018 and 2022), Mother & Pearl also shares the stage
with many good regional bands: Buy Jupiter, Dukkha, Red Gordon, Wedingoth, Holophonics, Burn Your Karma, Flayed,
Side 2 Fake, Harmorage...
In 2023, the group is entering a new phase in its history.
If the founding members Olivier Coulon (guitar, melodic vocals), Jean-François Aragon (guitar) and Michel Franchi (bass) are
still present, Mathieu Coulon (drums then saturated vocals) stopped the adventure at the end of 2022: he was replaced by Xavier Michalon (Burn
Your Karma, Soulbreeder), with which the group will resume its forward march: dates are already planned for 2023 (with The
Amsterdam Red Light District, Lodz, Spheres,
and its intense concerts.
After launching with a very prog metal demo in 2008, the group found their style on their first album "Inner Voice", released
in 2013 at Brennus / Symbol Muzik. Rough and effective riffs, a duo of saturated / melodic voices, guitar solos
incisive, a sense of contrast, Mother & Pearl honors its references, from Machine Head to Pantera, from Opeth to Arch Enemy, from Lamb
of God at Freak Kitchen.
A second album, "Psycho Thrill", published in 2017, drives the point home: more compact, more powerful, it takes the listener by the throat,
with an even bigger sound, and an emphasis on the lyrics and the expressiveness of the song: evocation of the multiple facets of the
personality and the difficulty of making them cohabit, painful personal experiences, fictions, these disillusioned themes
direct the music towards an even darker universe. The mastering is entrusted to the German studio Kohlekeller (Benighted,
Powerwolf, Crematory...) and the cover to the English horror photographer Danielle Tunstall.
Over the years, Mother & Pearl weaves its web and secures a presence in the metal media: chronicles on the main
specialized webzines, twice in the monthly Rock Hard, a special evening on Radio Metal and many passages and
interviews on regional radios and web radios.
Concerts, the group's privileged field of expression have always gone upmarket following the album "Psycho
Thrilling”. After scouring the Lyon underground, Mother & Pearl opened for Blazing War Machine (Franky Costanza) in 2018,
for the Tambours du Bronx at Ninkasi Kao in Lyon in 2021, participates in several festivals: Leymfest in Ain with Nightmare
and Sangdragon in 2018, Springbreak Fest in Saint-Etienne in 2019, with Black Bomb A, Banane Metalik, Deathawaits, Eight Sins...

ARNAUD QUEVEDO & FRIENDS
From Magma to King Crimson via Gong or Nobuo Uematsu, Arnaud Quevedo's influences are numerous. Originally from La Rochelle where he has returned to settle, his sometimes lyrical, sometimes jazzy, often funky universe, including obsessive loops and a few heavy riffs, remains firmly anchored in a progressive jazz-rock style. As soon as the opportunity arises, dance, theater or the visual arts are associated with the music he composes and conceives as a project in its own right: Grunky, OniZ, Le Voyage de Roan, or Electric Tales. A multi-faceted chameleon musician, he alternates instruments according to the projects and his audience can discover him in turn on guitar, vocals, bass, keyboards, drums or even saxophone - and sometimes all this at the same time. times in these "one man band" videos.
