MA Rouf has created a fusion of the mystical Persia and the luring cool of the North, traveling the paths of international jazz and remaining true to Middle Eastern maqams. They are playing Middle Eastern rhythms with Scandinavian jazz influences - sufi jazz with a twist.
Come and hear their songs tell a story: when the beautiful future we imagine turns into the awareness of the reality being something other than we hoped for.

** REVIEWS **
"Polished production and performances provide a rich sonority and clarity for the particularly enjoyable instrumentation and arrangements."
- Douglas MacGregor, Songlines
"The music itself breathes calmly and is very free, being based more on musical discussion between the performers than on strict composition."
- Tove Djupsjöbacka, FMQ Finnish Music Quarterly
