Carcassonne - Grand Corps Malade

I understood nothing, when "Grand Corps Malade" and his band started a very rhythmic poetry slam performance. But even though it was brilliant fête, as GCM had birthday that day.

Grand Corps Malade, born as Fabien Marsaud in 1977, is well known in France and Canada. His first album (2006) sold 700.000! Meanwhile he is a "Chevalier dans l'ordre des Arts et Lettres" an order awarded for a "significant contribution to the enrichment of the French cultural inheritance."

The "accordéon" is a very popular instrument in French music. It gave the slam a special touch.
