| With roots firmly planted in Nordic folk music, Garmarna (gar'-mana) creates their own sound, influenced by the rock tradition they've all grown up with. They ignore the unwritten laws of how traditional music should be performed; they know no boundaries. Garmarna brilliantly fuses the ancient with the modern, traditional with rock, the transcendent with the subterranean. Vocalist Emma Hardelin is sure to earn international recognition as one of the most compelling female voices on the planet. She delivers Swedish medieval songs about evil spells, deceit and violence with sweet, sensuous seduction. The rest of the band rise to the task of providing real substance behind The Voice. Recent projects include adaptations of songs by Hildegard Von Bingen, the 12th century German mystic, artist and composer of some of the most spiritually moving music of any time or culture. |
" … potent and beautiful: Garmarna proves the frozen tundra is more fertile than we think." -Fortune Magazine |
