Artist details
Info
Griet used to compose and perform on her own, but since 12th April 2007 Margaretha Von Parma has become five-man-band: Griet, Arvid, Frank, Geert and Wouter. It had to be jazz-minded, lots of soul, and different . Our current line-up: vocals, Rhodes, Hammond, horns, drums and a bass. In a nutshell: Griet's voice at the centre, backed up by an able band.
Some people think it sounds like Norah Jones, others spot a hint of Everything but the girl, but if anything Margaretha Von Parma has its own sound.
Margaretha Von Parma is looking forward to playing lots more gigs!
more info you can find on:
- www.myspace.com/margarethamusic
Margaretha Von Parma is:
- Griet Van De Maele - piano, rhodes, vocals
- Wouter Van Daele - electric, acoustic bass
- Frank Debode - drums
- Geert De Meyer - saxophone
- Arvid Waelkens - trumpet, flugelhorn, percussion

Hi All,
Just a quick line of good news:
Last weekend MvP took part at two different contests, and on both occasions were voted as the winner by the jury. This means that we will play at the next round of both events (semi-finals and finals respectively)!

Hey you!
We shot some live footage during our previous gig, and one clip has already been uploaded to our sellaband-account, but apparantly the sellaband-server is taking its time process the clip.
So come back and check it again in a while. Hopefully it won't take that long any more.
See you soon

Hello there
Thursday we'll be playing Arte Libre Festival in Kortrijk (Coutrai). We'll be trying to get a decent live recording there. It's a quite a small venue, so hopefully we'll be able to get it done.
See you soon

Hello MvP-believers
A small message, just to let you know that we're collecting footage of ourselves to make a small clip (to show you who we are). No live-gig clip (yet), but some background info on our band...
Nothing fancy, but nevertheless interesting.
To be released soon :-)

We kind of lost track of our Sellaband-commitment, But that's all about to change!
We are going to try to get this going for real, so keep a close eye and come back regularly to check out the changes.
See you soon!

A great mixture of relaxing jazz and more lively pop. Back on track once again! |

| Wouter | 20.03.08 | 10 |
This is the band I currently play bass in and which I believe has a lot of potential. |

Ready for the Album. You have to listen to their music. Fantastic voice, a mix of rough/warm tones. Perfect and clever musicians. My pick of the month July07. |
