Two master musicians find new common ground between the Maghreb, Saharan desert and delta blues, Mediterranean melody, the taranta of Puglia in south Italy, and rocking soul. By turns powerful and intricate, together they create a raw, stripped-back sound that moves and mesmerises.
Justin Adams, guitarist, producer, and composer, has been a chief collaborator with Robert Plant. His production on landmark albums by Tinariwen and Rachid Taha highlight his feel for North African groove, while his award-winning project with Gambian maestro Juldeh Camara, JUJU, linked griot tradition with raw blues spirit.
Mauro Durante toured the world for many years with Ludovico Einaudi playing violin and frame drums. He is one of the leading players in the pizzica style of Southern Italy.
