Toulouse: Les Briques Sonores music scene returns
On April 1, 2022, the Sound Bricks retreat. On the program: music, tapas, artists and clothing stand. The project is the result of a collaboration between the local fashion brand Mer.fils and the restaurant A Taula. They are back to offer a musical atmosphere 100% made in Toulouse.
Music of all kinds, clothing and jewelery stand, new tapas menu, interior courtyard, up-and-coming artists… This is a second season that should delight the good living of the Pink City. The Briques Sonores event returns on April 1, 2022, from 7 p.m. at the restaurant A Taula, in the Esquirol district; with only one idea in mind: to promote the party in Toulouse with the young talents of the city.
An intermediary between artists and their public
Initially planned to allow Toulouse residents to meet around a musical afterwork on Friday evening; the Bricks of Sound concept has become a means of encounter for budding artists and a listening public. By launching this free event open to all, Christophe Cazier, on the initiative of the Mer.fils brand, works with a participatory principle: “We are giving Toulouse artists a chance to make themselves known. We offer them a stage, customers, they allow us their performance”. An organization that suits Maria Romero, owner of the restaurant A Taula: “This is not the place you first think of to party. Les Briques Sonores have modernized the Maison de l’Occitanie. The new younger clientele has made it possible to make known, under another facet, this place seen as classic.
Diversify the scene
This is one of the big challenges of this new edition: to bring greater live musical openness to the public. Until now much focused on DJs, the event tends to offer more varied styles with new artists such as rappers GR OMEGA or Akab Maltese, but still rock with the music group Beach SCVM.
The selection of artists is established with Mirso, resident DJ of the sound bricks. In office since 2010, he has already mixed with artists like Bodzin and Worakls. He occupies the set from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m.
The Briques Sonores project is above all a musical concept, centered on volunteer artists. Christophe Cazier is preparing a collaboration with the association Prisme Asso. This is the gathering of collectives and artists from Toulouse. The association accompanies the city’s performing artists by sharing and highlighting events around music.
This second season of Les Briques Sonores opens the ball with Akrav, a dark disco dj.
