[Jabadaw, Fika]
Soprano Saxophone, Octave Mandola

Coming together from two of the hottest young English ceilidh bands to emerge in recent years, this new duo offer something quite different: new and traditional tunes from England, Germany, France and Scandinavia, played on clarinet and soprano saxophone, with occasional touches of rhythm from octave mandola. Stripped to the bare essentials, the tunes are given room to breathe, creating space for rich harmonies and counterpoints. Perfect listening for summer afternoons or late night acoustic concerts...
