Hi Everyone! 

We are getting close to the finish line! Our album is in the Mastering stage, and we will mail them out in a few weeks. 

If you are eligible to receive a CD, please make sure that your address is up to date. Just send us a message via Kickstarter with the updated info, if needed.

Our time in Piteå is coming to an end! We've accomplished a lot of duo/ensemble projects and tours over the past 2 years, and couldn't be happier. We will soon move to different places in the world, but plan to work together as much as possible. 

Thanks!

Maria & Jake 

Curious as to what the compositions sound like?! Check out the concert online, anytime, and enjoy :)

Hi Everyone!

The premiere of the new works is upon us! I hope you can join us during the performance online at www.piteplay.se at 19:00 (in Sweden, 12:00 CST) on Thursday, October 13. We are extremely fortunate, and have a fantastic production team that will make this a really special experience for all the viewers.

Also, tweet your thoughts during the concert using #evolutionduopremiere, and have your comments and questions addressed live online after the concert!

We couldn't have put this program together without you! We hope you enjoy the show :)

Thanks again!
Maria and Jake

Hi Everyone!

We are so excited to see this project come to life! Dave, Casey, Baljinder, David, and Csaba have all written fantastic new pieces. We've put together our recording crew, and everything is falling into place for presenting this music all over the world. The premiere of the works will be held here, in Piteå, on October 13...just 4 weeks away!

Now, we will start collecting the information to send out the rewards you have all earned. Those who signed up to receive music, will receive it within the next month. The DVDs and CDs will still take some time, but please be patient! We will be posting some clips online, and the premiere concert will also be streamed, so you can see that your generosity was put to good use! 

Please respond to the information surveys at your earliest convenience. And....stay tuned for more fun facts about the project!

Thanks,
Maria and Jake

Hi everyone! 

Thanks again for your support in this endeavor! We just got back from a tour in southern Sweden with our ensemble. We taught at a folkschool (a pre-college), gave a few concerts, and presented a rudimental drumming clinic to the army band percussionists. Now, things are winding down, and everyone is getting excited for summer. The days are really, really long up here, and soon the sun will never go down (24 hours of daylight = long rehearsals!!) 

The next step in this project will be to collect all of the information from you fine people, so that we can deliver your rewards. Expect another message within a few days! Baljinder, Dave, Casey and David (as well as Jake, Maria, and Csaba) are busy writing, and it will be exciting to see and hear the program as a whole! 

The premiere of the works will be in Piteå on October 13. We are setting up the rest of the concert dates now (if you want to have us to your town, let us know! We'll be on this side of the ocean in October, in the Midwestern states in November, and southern states in December!) We will then record the CD the last week of January. As soon as the CD and other rewards are ready, they'll be in your mailbox! 

Tack så mycket allihopa! Ni är den bästa! :)
