Viik
Sagt
The pan-Scandinavian ensemble Víík, whose members hail from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, operates at the intersection of Nordic folk tradition, progressive jazz, and alternative rock. At the forefront of Víík is the charismatic Norwegian singer and songwriter Elisabeth Vik, who takes the audience on a magical journey through medieval ballads and fairy tales while redefining the musical boundaries of Nordic folk. The music magazine Gaffa writes: "Nordic primal force. New Nordic Folk at its finest. If 'Game Of Thrones' were a Nordic-mythological series, Víík would deliver the fitting soundtrack. Víík also impresses as a fantastic live band and has successfully performed at the legendary Roskilde Festival in Denmark. In addition to Elisabeth Vik, Víík features Annelene Toft (violin), Villads Hoffmann (cister), Morten Alkjær Lassen (harmonica), and Jakob Kragesand (double bass) from Denmark, as well as Mårten Hillbom (percussion) from Sweden.
