about

Released in 2008, a more acoustic version of the Mawwal band then based in Northampton MA. A more basic stripped down sound where I tried to be more true to the original music that this was based upon.
Featured prominently here is the brilliant harmonic/overtone singer from across the river Jim Cole.
'This Is All there Is, There Is No Other Place' came to me as if audibly spoken while sitting alone for some time in a cow pasture in Conway MA, the town where my grandfather lived and was a dairy farmer.
