Tournée Générale was formed as a trio in Lorraine in 2005. The group has developed a repertoire at the crossroads of French alternative rock and committed chanson, with a preference for Léo Ferré and Christian Paccoud. Scouring bars (hence the band's name), small venues and festivals, Tournée Générale released the self-produced album On N'est Pas Prêt D'S'en R'Mettre in 2007. Emphasizing the need to get closer to their audience, Tournée Générale released the album Tournée Générale in 2009. In 2012, the band led by brothers Maxime and Jean-Philippe Vauthier teased out their usual themes, with a bit of folk and blues on Demain C'est Quand? Now a quartet since its 2012 tour, Tournée Générale celebrates its tenth anniversary with the live album 10 Ans...Et Toutes Nos Dents, released in January 2015.
