Frigg, TradFest, Traverse

 A fun-loving, frolicsome Finnish folk formation, with a four fiddle frontline. Behind the bowing quartet there's upright bass, guitar and cittern/mandolin. Undeniably Nordic in style, but, even in the material written by the band, pulling in influences from all over.  Asturian folk tunes, AC DC inspired rock, bluegrass and Scottish music, all mixed into a complex interplay between the fiddlers, and constantly changing rhythms from the back three.  Exuberant, funny, and keen to get the audience involved, Frigg are wonderful entertainment.
