More info: "We often find ourselves in airports, train stations, cafés. Waiting to go. To arrive. To meet. To play. Time flies by so quickly, but we steal some to try to capture little moments and make them into tales of sound and moods. These moments have now become music, reflecting the kind of life that happens on the road, while playing on stage or catching up with friends in cafés along the way. With "CPH-Café-YUL" a part of ?the? journey ends, and a new one begins." - Maja & David There is something true and honest about music that is played only on the number of instruments that can be carried by two people on the road. Maja & David only use the effects that their instruments can produce, and though built on great distances, their music knows no borders. Denmark and Québec in Canada are the starting points of the duo’s music. Maja Kjær Jacobsen and David Boulanger are traditional musicians and specialists in the music of their respective cultures, which have developed in different directions 6,000 km apart for hundreds of years. Maja & David uncover the common lines in a surprising and refreshing way. By combining similarities and differences, as well as their own compositions, they create a rare and intense hybrid of traditional music.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
