Immersed in the ancient traditions of reindeer husbandry, artistic handicraft (duodji), and joik (luohti) from a young age, Hildá seamlessly blends her rich cultural heritage with contemporary music and visual arts. Her studies at the Sibelius Academy’s Global Music Programme have broadened her horizons, enabling her to collaborate with artists from diverse backgrounds and engage with a wide range of musical traditions.

Hildá Länsman is the front-figure of several critically acclaimed Sámi music groups; Solju, VILDÁ, Gájanas and a duo with Tuomas Norvio

Hildá's performances are distinguished by her uniquely ethereal, shrilling, growling, and clear voice, captivating audiences both in Sámi regions and internationally. As a proud custodian of Sámi culture, she passionately upholds the traditions of joik and duodji.

Currently, Hildá is immersed in the creation of a pioneering debut album that is set to redefine the boundaries of Sámi music.
