Nordic Sound #41 - Songleikr (Maria Franz and Ingrid Aune Falch)

What a nice interview

About the roots part
Even in Europe we do not really have roots.
I come from a background of Slavic and Jewish roots so there was never much to be rooted in.

I am happy to see more open spaces for ppl being able to reconnect to their heritage.
From the natives to the African ppl who might be happier reconnecting to their old culture instead of Christian and Muslim cultures that did not treat them well.

Great interview, loved it and very honest 💚🧡

Oh man. I feel the conversation about friction with the folk traditionalists. That is my experience with the bluegrass scene here in Wisconsin. You are expected to know the songs and the leads and everything the same way. That is just not how I work. I respect the tradition and the work they put in to learn these songs and keep them alive but I don't like limitations. I could never be a guitarist who played solos like on the record every night. That stance has cost me gigs but I have to be true myself or playing music would become work.

yessssss more singing around the fire. it's the best.
