Born into a musical family, Stéphane GALLAND got his first drumset at the age of 3. He decided to take lessons at the Huy (Belgium) conservatory in classical percussion when he was 9 and graduated from all the main classical courses at the age of 17 while finishing his high school. He became strongly interested in jazz at age 11 when he started to perform with jazz musicians, including a very young Eric LEGNINI (p).

At the age of 15, he attends several clinics and workshops, a.o. with drummers Dré PALLEMAERTS and Bruno CASTELLUCCI, Aldo ROMANO, Joey BARON and Billy HART.

Having had the opportunity to play with all the great names of Belgian jazz as a teenager, he looked for new experiences in music. Stéphane GALLAND played a long time with the trio of pianist Eric LEGNINI, with Jean-Louis RASSINFOSSE.. (2 CDs), and performs with them in many festivals in Belgium and abroad (a.o. an African tour). In 1988 he meets guitarist Pierre VAN DORMAEL. With a group of musicians, they found a club named "De Kaai", which will soon become a laboratory for all kinds of musical experiments.

It is the birth of NASA NA BAND, with guitarist Pierre VAN DORMAEL, Fabrizio CASSOL on alto sax and bassist Michel HATZIGEORGIOU. This band, now considered as an influential band for many musical groups to follow in Belgium, will remain active during three years, performing in the club but also all over Europe.

After the departure of guitarist Pierre VAN DORMAEL, and a trip to Africa, and a study of the Aka pygmee music and traditions, the band becomes a trio : AKA MOON.

The band played during 7 years in, its own jazz club, now defunct, the musicians owned "Kaai", where they drew more and more attention with their original, rhythmically complex combination of jazz, rock and ethnic music. Soon they started to tour all over Europe and to receive wide attention in festivals.
