about

A fatally ill young woman pleads with her family to come visit, but all she gets is a series of increasingly ridiculous excuses. This Algerian folk song is threaded with improvisations on a melody common to several Norwegian hallings, and opens with a Swedish tune from Bohuslän, a welcome call to friends and family returning from work at sea.

A new acoustic quartet scattered across the Northern Hemisphere: Arabic folk songs are artfully sewn together with traditional Scandinavian melodies, fronted by two powerhouse vocalists and driven by acoustic guitar and upright bass.
