Moriarty (band)
Moriarty is a French-American musical group formed in 1995. It is a musical collective of five artists of French, American, Swiss and Vietnamese origin, who were mostly born in France to American parents. The group was named Moriarty in reference to Dean Moriarty, the hero of ''On the Road'' by Jack Kerouac. History Initially, the group consisted of six members. Singer Charlène Dupuy, drummers Médéric de Vanssay and Shaman Lebrun, and saxophonist Davide Woods left in its early years, while Rosemary Standley joined in 1999. The departures of the drummer and percussionists, forced the five remaining members to play acoustically.

The group won the Paris Yo ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
