A Nordic national treasure with a soundscape that spans centuries. During 2020 year’s festival, Selvik takes us on a musical journey that is a little different to Wardruna’s normally massive soundscape. Instead, he presents a more stripped-down and direct expression where vocal use, lyrics and instruments such as kraviklyre, the oldest known string instrument in Norway, jouhikko, a two- or three-stringed bowed lyre traditionally used in Finland and in Karelia, Russia and buckshorn, also known as billy goat horn, all play key roles. CONTRIBUTORS Einar Selvik vocals, kravik lyre, talharpa, sotharpa Ivar Bjørnson guitar Iver Sandøy drums, percussion, vocals Silje Solberg fiddle, vocals Håkon Vinje piano, vocals Lindy-Fay Hella vocals
