With an unusual lineup, unpredictable arrangements, and a great deal of joy in playing, a close interplay is created when RÅ takes the stage. It is liberatingly free from clichés while simultaneously genuine and well thought out. The predominantly traditional Swedish folk music is dressed in everything from contemporary art music to EDM-inspired riffs, and the result is its very own sound, which feels both brave and refreshing.
The musicians in RÅ combine the melancholic seriousness of the polskas, the suggestive rhythm of the waltzes, and the playful swing of the polkas and create a whole that challenges the listener, while harboring great love and respect for the musical heritage they uphold. With its unusual lineup consisting of violin, clarinet, and saxophone, the sound becomes an exciting and fresh addition to the Nordic music scene.
