Folk Bands and Artists
Malija
This sophisticated, genre-bending trio performs music from their new CD Instinct, along with repertoire from the previous album The Day I Had Everything on Edition Records. Driven by a commitment to in-the-moment improvisation and collective musical banter, the band’s idiomatic sweep through bluegrass, tango, abstract grooves and shimmering landscapes is delivered with flair and playful abandon. Three distinctive compositional voices, all hugely influential in the London scene, combine to form a unique sounding group.
“The pleasure of this trio in their close relationship is infectiously evident all over the set.” (The Guardian)
“This all-star trio delivers meticulously crafted performances, a cliché-free collection and a work of trenchant individuality.” (The Arts Desk)
