The Harald Haugaard and Helene
Blum Band recently celebrated
10 years together with a sold-out
Northern European tour and are
now in North America again sharing
their updated traditional and original
music with festival audiences. Band
members include Kirstine Elise Ped-
ersen on cello, Mikkel Grue on gui-
tar and Sune Rahbek on percussion.
Combining fiddle and accordion
in folk music has long been a tradi-
tion in Norway. Bjørn Kåre Odde
and Ole Nilssen have strong skills
on their respective instruments and
know the traditions well, but their
music together is innovative and
imaginative and pushes tradition to
the boundaries.
These young musicians have a
light, playful and dynamic inter-
action that appeals to danc-
ers and concert audiences
equally. Enjoy listening
to updated traditional and
original tunes by some of
Norway’s finest new and
upcoming musicians.
