about

Mahjoun was a collective of improvisers and Gnawa musicians who performed and recorded together in NYC in the late 1990s. This album is a documentation of the experiment. The first two tracks were recorded at Pepper Temple Studios, Staten Island NY, and the rest are live recordings from one of our performances at Tagine Restaurant, NYC.
