FRIGG (Finland)

Event information

‘high-energy, full force fiddle attack to pastoral chamber-folk … a thrilling performance from start to Finnish and the audience Lapped it up!’ Fatea Magazine

Fiddling but not as we know it… Musicianship of the highest quality with more than a hint of mischief & wonder. Scandomusic as good as it gets.

‘You can put me down as a fan’ Simon Nicol, Fairport Convention
‘five-star’ Fiona Talkington, Songlines
‘irresistible’ The Herald
‘Nordgrass rocks!’ Alex Monaghan, The Living Tradition

Reeling from their UK debut year - they dazzled Celtic Connections, The Scots Fiddle Festival, The Sage Gateshead, Cambridge Folk Festival… - this international fiddle septet are back for more. Featuring the premier talents of a new generation of folk musicians, Frigg has developed a blend of their own called Nordgrass, a mix of Nordic folk and American bluegrass. A hair-raising, voice-losing, heart-burstingly beautiful gig full of traditional Finnish tunes with Norwegian detours.

On-stage 7.00pm - the smallest venue on this tour!
