Tibet2Timbuk2’s “Music is Life” CD and individual tracks are now available on iTunes, Amazon, eMusic and Napster. However, please note that if you buy from our partner store at EthnoSuperLounge, more of your hard-earned cash goes to support the artists and the Tibetan Children’s Village in Dharamsala.

Prices at the EthnoSuperLounge store are currently introductory specials – expect them to go up to match iTunes in the next few weeks.
