"LETTERS FROM THE BOATMAN" is the title of the album that A Jigsaw have been preparing since February 2005. A Jigsaw is a Portuguese band made up of two multi-instrumentalists: Jorri and João Rui, that the specialized press does not hesitate to compare to names such as Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave and Tindersticks. In terms of the sound, the album expresses two sides of the band. On one side, one hears the influence of an older rock style, still close to folk and blues, but without sounding as if it were recorded in the era where this sound was born. On the other side, they reveal songs with a more intimate feel, where the acoustic guitar is the main focus.
