EAST OF THE VALLEY BLUES (Toronto) Toronto duo improvising acoustic folk music where the snap and tumble of the delta, the ramble and awareness of the raga, and the ascension and descension of celtic melody get carved up. https://eastofthevalleyblues.bandcamp.com/
KAMYAR ARSANI / HUDA ASFOUR Kamyar Arsani (on Persian frame drum called Daf) blends his rhythms with Huda Asfour's Oud (from Palestine) and the duo brings your minds to a borderless earth, where nothing but soma, nothing but Dance can interpret their Sufi music. https://soundcloud.com/asfoura/with-kamyar-improv2
THE SHOUTS FROM THE SEA The Shouts are Patrick Cain and Phong Tran. "The ancestral water mysteries turn proud. Paddling shore’s unfamiliar voyage, lost lands covered in archaic art-leafage. Mission of elastic grip-hold, tensions minimized through collective gift-offer…Voices shaped through the sea’s vast horn."--Power Moves Label https://eiderdownrecords.bandcamp.com/track/the-shouts-from-the-sea-untitled
