We have the great pleasure and honor to present our violin substitute, none other than… Lena Jonsson!!
During the spring and summer of 2026, Emma will be on parental leave and then Lena will step in instead. We have started rehearsing together now, lots of shrimps, backwards strokes, syncopations and other little things that need to be put in place.
On Friday’s gig at Bror Hjorths Hus, Lena will be making her debut, we are so happy to have such a great replacement!

The new year begins with a few gigs in January. First up is Bror Hjorths Hus in Uppsala on January 16, followed by a shorter tour in Finland, with four concerts on January 22-25. In Finland we also have the pleasure of having Fenja, some of our course participants from the Kapellsberg Music School, as our support act.

Now the steaming fresh disc has come from the pressing.
Tomorrow, February 22, there will be a concert and official release at Umefolk, at 8 pm at Idun in Folkets hus. Then we sign records at a special price.
If you don’t have the opportunity to get there, it can be ordered at Bengan’s, among others
and from now on you will also be able to buy the physical one in Bengan’s stores, at Folk å Rock, at Burmans in Umeå and at Vinylstallet in Sundsvall. More places will be added gradually.
Now we release our third video from the new record!
The song is called Mikaeli and is based on two Mikaeli songs and a love song, recorded by Roger Bergsten at Nevo Studios.
Together with Ulrika Bodén, we have now played in 13 songs, a total of 53 minutes, new and old music and are very happy to be able to present our collaboration on record. Record release with concert at Umefolk 22 February.
Come listen, buy the record, talk to us and celebrate the release!
Book the album release at Umefolk, concert and opportunity to buy the new album, 22 February.
Or come to the Sundsvall release, at Jazzklubben Sundsvall on February 24.
We will update the tour plan and more information will come soon about where the record can be ordered. Welcome!
Thanks to the audience and organizers for a wonderful summer! Together with Ulrika Bodén, we have played at Ransätersstämman, Korrö folk music festival and most recently at Kalottspel. This is followed by an autumn with more gigs, both as a trio and with Ulrika. We will also record an album together as a quartet, to be released in February.
Here is one more song from our upcoming album with Ulrika Bodén, “Ingen större fröjd”.
We found it in “Visor från Skånska landsbygden” and the slängpolska is after Nils Jönsson in Sövestad.
Recorded by Roger Bergsten, Nevo Studios, Sundsvall.
If you want to hear us live, take the opportunity to come to Jönköping or Malmö on March 8-9. Or why not visit Shetland in May? If it feels far away, maybe the Ransätersstämman or the Korrö Folk Music Festival is a better fit. However, if you like beautiful nature, we recommend Kalottspel in Northern Norway.
Hope to see you somewhere!
Here is the first taste of our upcoming album together with Ulrika Bodén.
“Men det värsta hände mig” (But the worst thing happened to me) after Eva Hedberg, Bredsele, Dorotea parish. The instrumental parts are a hearding song found by Rudolf Halvarsson, Torp.
Recorded by Roger Bergsten, Nevo Studios, Sundsvall.
Hooray, we’re going to play at the Shetland Folk Festival again, this time together with Ulrika Bodén. So fun it will be! If you haven’t been there, go there, it’s a fantastic festival in every way!
