United by a deep love of folk music, Åkervinda’s four female singers create enchanting otherworldly harmonies that breathe new life into traditional Scandinavian folk tunes. Performing a cappella, their voices find a jazz groove that moves from energetic dance rhythms to the meditative, all grounded in folk traditions. Åkervinda has performed at prominent vocal festivals and folk venues across Europe, Canada and the USA. They have shared the stage with esteemed ensembles such as the Malmö Symphony Orchestra, Beethoven Orchestra Bonn and The Swingles. The group’s name is inspired by a Swedish wildflower whose roots spread far and wide. Like the flower’s roots, they gracefully entwine melodies, rock solid groove and intriguing harmonies that will take root in your mind.
