It was in 2002 that Moïa and Julie-Blanche had the idea to establish a troupe inspired by all kinds of percussion groups (brasilian batucadas, fanfares, drum corps, etc.) that would be put together in a totally new and explosive mixture. It took only a few weeks to bring together a gang of zany percussionnists inspired by their project: Kumpa’Nia was born !
The troupe presently has more than 650 shows under their belts). From the International Jazz Festival to the Fêtes de la Nouvelle-France in Quebec City, passing by the Ronde Européenne des Géants Portés in France, this engaging troubadour group doesn’t cease to amaze and to spread around it’s contagious energy.
Since the departure of Moïa in 2006, KUMPA'NIA is guided by Julie-Blanche and the role of conductor is filled by Normand Desrochers
