Leïla Martial plays her voice like an instrument. Clown as much as singer, she claims a yoghurt scat that feeds on many vocal traditions: pygmies, gypsies, and anything that can spice up her colourful vocals. As an ecologist, Leïla Martial participates in the call "For an ecology of living music "*.
