VEGOMATIC was officially born in 2000, a year marked by the release of the Maxi-CD “Uluwatu“. Drawing its inspiration from surf music, 80s electro, 60s and 70s rock and pop music, the band has shaped its style since 1998.

A folk surf musical road movie on CD/DVD.
Freshly separated from the mother of his child, a man drives his 1973 Volkswagen Camper van which he now calls his home. As a form of therapy, besides calling on some musician friends he plays music with, he also meets new people who help him deal with his family situation and come to grips with the sources of his pain. Travelling mostly on artistically-rendered scenic byways of France, he is on a personal quest for revelation.
