Hello, happy taxpayers. Welcome to the world of Mark Enbatta's Tribe!
You maybe know I'm the only remaining member of the original Vietnam Veterans...
I've decided that this name won't be used anymore for new records or gigs.
Lucas wasn't an original member but I will keep this decision until he stops being dead.
This is the collection of all of my music from The Vietnam Veterans, The Vietnam Chain, The Gitanes, The Thyrd Twin and my solo work, ME.
The TRIBE is more than a band. It's a chosen family...
Not only musicians might be members of the TRIBE and the line up of the band is an open one!
At the moment, Peter McConnel, Eric Lenoir, Erik Jeulin and I are holding the instruments whilst Zinzan Blue is minding the art but I hope Clarisse Bruyère and others are ready to join in! Soon into the studio to record a new album!
We're currently mixing 14 songs for the Mark Enbatta's TRIBE album. Quite a long work because new production ideas never stop coming in...
Eight of the new songs are already played on stage and perfectly fit with the older ones. Some of them already get more than just success when played live!

After only two rehearsals, the tribe is ready to enter the recording studio... It won't happen before April but it's amazing how each guy understands the moods of all the songs! There will be more rehearsals in the Kaiser studio and I'm sure that everyone of us will bring new ideas for the final tapes...
13 original songs should be on the album. Maybe a cover too...
All of the Vietnam Veterans' songs have been written and brought to life with an acoustic guitar... Even Mark's guitar style is heavily influenced by the way an acoustic guitar is usually played. All along those recordings, you will hear much more than a guy singing and strumming his instrument. You will hear vocal harmonies, several instruments and a real production work. Even solo efforts like these ones are aimed to become band recordings. Just like the late PF Sloan's pre Grassroots or Barry McGuire's…
Read moreSince June 2015, I knew that Lucas would leave the Vietnam Veterans to join the Eternal Lost Stars Band. We couldn't blame him for it. Who would refuse to play with Jerry Garcia, Sky Saxon, John Lennon and Jimi Hendrix?
Many months before leaving us, he told me to ask his younger brother to take his place in the band. Emotionally it’s too heavy for Laurent... so we've decided that nobody would replace the one and only Kaiser.
Now the band is back to its original 1982-1983 form: bass, drums and two…
