HULDRELOKKK – the wood nymph’s beckoning call, is a brand-new all-female trio playing acoustic folk music from three Scandinavian countries: Norway, Sweden and Denmark.
Three angelic voices coupled with two virtuoso fiddles and a groovy rhythmic guitar, they celebrated their world premiere concert to an enthusiastic Berlin audience in October 2009. There followed concerts and festival appearances in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Germany. The Debut CD Huldrelokkk: Trolldans (Westpark Music) of this exceptional trio will be released in September 2011 in Europe, and an international release tour is scheduled for October/ November.
“Grooving folk guitar, dynamic fiddles and powerful harmony vocals in different nordic languages…one of the freshest sounds appearing on the Nordic folk horizon this spring.” Lira Magazine, Sweden 2/2011
“… a female trio which really makes you sit up and take notice …The dreamy melodies from the fiddle and Nyckelharpa (a medieval instrument rarely seen nowadays) coupled with the strong and sensitive guitar of Kerstin Blodig form the musical fundament of this band, often rounded off with beautiful three-part vocal harmonies. Solo songs and a-capella further supplemented this sublime performance, which completely enthralled the audience. Frenetic and lengthy bursts of applause between the individual pieces were proof that even a folk music in a language which only a few people here understand – can be intensely moving and entertaining.” Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung 10/2010
”Despite the very intricate rhythmical structure of their song arrangements, the women had at times a groove which was quite infernal… ” Lindesnes, Mandal/ Norway 2010
“A Scandinavian trio of powerful women” Bohuslänningen, Sweden 2011

Huldrelokkk to skandynawskie trio, trzy leśne nimfy o anielskich, ale bardzo mocnych głosach:
Kerstin Blodig: vocals, guitar, bodhrán (irlandzki bęben obręczowy)
Liv Vester Larsen: vocals, fiddle (odmiana skrzypiec), percussion
Mia Gunberg Ådin: vocals, fiddle, nykkelharpa (tradycyjny szwedzki instrument smyczkowy o 4-6 strunach podobny w formie do liry bizantyjskiej)
Huldrelokk ma za sobą entuzjastycznie przyjętą przez publikę, trasę koncertową, która zaczęła się od Berlina w 2009 r. Mieszanka cieplejszej odmiany folku z północy, którą prezentują panie to bardzo energetyczna i pełna życia muzyka, coś przeciwstawnego do popularnego w ostatnich latach "skandynawskiego chłodu". Mamy tutaj melodie celtyckie, irlandzkie, duńskie oraz korzenną muzyke Norwegii i Szwecji. Po prostu ognisty taniec troli!
