Woodlands Bäckafall

First time in Schwitzerland! Woodlands Bäckafall fuses Swedish midsummer with the spirit of an Irish pub. Four voices, five languages, and a vibrant blend of nyckelharpa, Celtic harp, fiddle and guitar. Rooted in tradition – but never stuck in it. Starting out as a quartet for a one-off concert, Woodlands Bäckafall were brought together to perform at Göteborg Folk Festival in 2020. We had never played together previously and had only one rehearsal prior to the show. The nerves were real but the magic that rose between us sparked a will to continue playing. And so we did! Our debutalbum Traditional Colours is the fruit of the last five years of creating and writing music together: music based on our different backgrounds, languages and traditions. A piece of art painted with our personal traditional colours. 

Line-Up:
Fredy Samuel Lundh - Nyckelharpa, Song Kristina Leesik - Violin, Song Justyna Krzyzanowska - Harpa, Song Hampus Grönberg - Guitar, Song
