Ævestaden is a Swedish-Norwegian trio that merges traditional and modern folk music in a unique way with varied instrumentation and evocative lyrics. Their songs are folk-pop with a twist, unafraid to blend the clean and gritty, electronic and traditional. This is evident in how modern lyrics seamlessly integrate with the use of electronic instruments as well as traditional ones like cow horn, kravik lyre, and mouth harp. Their second album, ‘Solen var bättre där’ (The Sun Was Better There), released in September 2023 on Supertraditional, solidifies their place in the folk music scene.

Ævestaden er en svensk-norsk trio, der fusionerer traditionel og moderne folkemusik på unik vis med en varieret instrumentering og stemningsfulde tekster. Det er folke-popsange med et twist, der ikke er bange for at blande hverken det rene og beskidte, elektroniske og traditionelle. Det mærkes i måden de moderne tekster smelter sammen med brugen af såvel elektroniske instrumenter som blandt andet kohorn, kraviklyre og mundharpe. Deres andet album ‘Solen var bättre där’, udgivet i september 2023 på Supertraditional, markerer deres faste plads på folkemusikscenen.
