Leïla Martial plays her voice like an instrument. A clown as much as a singer, her yoghurt scat draws on many vocal traditions: pygmies, gypsies, and anything else that spices up her colorful vocals. An ecologist, Leïla Martial is a member of the appeal "Pour une écologie de la musique vivante "* (For an ecology of living music).
