David French & Louis Simão Faia 2004
The duo's debut recording, Faia, captures the sonic grace of French and Simão's performances and the rhythmic intensity of their compositions. From the lilting samba of Poeira and the folkloric maculelê of Saber Cair to the haunting fado, Canção do Mar, the duo's repetoire covers a broad emotional range.

David French has performed and recorded with a variety of artists, including Jacksoul, Jordan O'Connor's Cash Cow, and Pedras da Rua. On Faia, David plays all saxophones and contributes on vocals and percussion. On Faia Louis is featured on vocals, acoustic guitar, upright bass, and percussion.
