The sound of violins in three octaves, feet stomping and intense voices invites the audience to a
journey through dance music, spirituality, dreams and death. The music is based on traditional
music material, fragments, songs and new compositions. Traditional, disruptive and honest.
Songs about life and death, remembrance of a past, looking towards the future.
In the middle of the pandemic lockdown in 2020, three experienced folk musicians from the southern
Swedish region of Skåne (Scania) met for the first time. They shared a vision of creating a new sound
for their local tradition and presenting it to an international audience.
After digging in old manuscripts and composing new material they started to work with two
dramaturgs Maria Clauss och Claes Peter Hellwig (Professor in creative processes).
The result “Scaninan Very Old Pop”, is a thematic concert about life, death and dance which
premiered at esteemed folk club Malmö Folk in spring 2022.
