VÄDUR is a folk music band consisting of four young, highly skilled instrumentalists with plenty of energy and stage presence. Together, they have established themselves as an exciting and fresh addition to the Swedish folk music scene. With roots in Nordic folk music, the members compose their own material, drawing influences from jazz and classical music, among others. The result is a blend of atmospheric string melodies, combined with rhythmic intensity and a groove that sets the whole room swaying. Their four distinctive personal styles and musical backgrounds merge seamlessly on stage, creating a unified musical experience that effortlessly captivates the audience.

‘‘The album’s tracks are all grounded in rhythmic intricacy, well-balanced voice leading, and long musical lines woven through the arrangements. These elements form a solid foundation, enriched by a clear and engaging sense of instrumental storytelling. In an almost cinematic way, each piece tells a wordless story — one that invites me, as a listener, to interpret with curiosity and attention, and to let myself be carried away by it.’’ - Lira musikmagasin 2025
