“Ra Rising Sun“ official music video directed and produced by Ragnarok Film More info at Hear the song everywhere: Gabbarein is Cecilie Hafstad and Christopher Bono. Their self titled debut album is released April 5, 2024. “Ra Rising Sun“ was born from one of the first improvisational Gabbarein recording sessions on the Fjord in Lyngen, Norway. Christopher Bono reflects, “This track represents something ancient, something ancestral, something beyond words. In fact, I think it is the track that best reflects our style, displaying the arc of gentleness to intensity that is a defining character of the album.“ The duo's creative process for “Ra Rising Sun“ unfolded organically, with Christopher playing a simple theme on the kalimba with Cecilie singing into the moment. Cecilie Hafstad explains, “(Ra Rising Sun) is sung in a channeled 'language' that I do not consciously understand but that made perfect sense to me when I sang and created the track.“ She describes the lyrical themes as emphasizing the cyclical nature of life, the struggle for balance, and the profound significance of the sun as a symbol of birth, growth, and consciousness. This visually captivating music video was produced and directed by Ragnarok Film (Wardruna, Kalandra, Gåte) filmed in multiple locations near Trondheim, Norway exploring incredible nature sites including Trollkirka, aka Troll Church, a waterfall and natural pool in Elnesvågen, Norway. Gabbarein's self-titled, full-length debut is scheduled to release on April 5, 2024, via digital and limited 2LP, featuring full project notes, recording session photos and a vinyl etching.
