I am a 26 year old folkmusician from Härjedalen, Sweden.
I grew up in a village called Linsell in Härjedalen. Many of Härjedalens greatest fiddlers lived around here. The untouched mountains and deep forests has a special place in my heart, as do the music.
The tunes from Härjedalen have influences from Hälsingland, Medelpad, Värmland and Röros.
I'v been into Swedish and Norwegian folkmusic since I first met my good friend and great fiddler Greger Brändström, who did a great job in bringing the old tunes from Härjedalen up into the light again.
Stay tuned for uploads from our new CD.
