Recorded and filmed entirely live in a Beehive.

"At times they also make you think of some Africa lost in a dream and push you as if in a trance to stand up, turn to the speakers, hug them and say 'I love you'. It's really difficult to convey how heart- breaking it is to listen to this beautiful record that you suddenly become fond of as if it were a matter of the heart or of a rediscovered friendship: A real surprise that I struggle to communicate out of modesty, such is the sweetness. and the originality that exudes from every single note and word.." - Stefano I. Bianchi - Editor at Blowup Magazine Italy

“Comes together in a brilliance that you don’t find very often”
Sarah Ward, Jazz FM
