Folk Duo Stockholm

Based in Stockholm, our talented Traditional Folk Duo consists of two of Sweden’s most established folk musicians - Hazelius and Hedin. They sing and play their Swedish folk music with passion, rare ease and unquestionable presence - it’s impossible for any audience to remain unaffected!

The duo’s repertoire includes everything from medieval ballads, sailor songs, love ballads and instrumental dance tunes. The duo also passes on tradition through their own compositions, with arrangements carefully inspired by the Irish tradition of music arranging.

Hazelius is one of very few professional male folk singers in Sweden who has also become a sought after instrumentalist and music arranger. He is also one of the leading experts on Irish music in Scandinavia.

Hedin is an adept musician and accomplished on the nyckelharpa, oktavnyckelharpa, (keyfiddle, octave keyfiddle), octave mandola and song. He’s a well-known nyckelharpa player who is admired for his way of handling the instrument. For many years he has worked on developing the keyed fiddle as an instrument, for example by making several new models in different registers. He usually plays in small, intimate constellations or as a soloist in various contexts.

Perfect for those looking for traditional Folk music, this talented musical duo will entertain the masses at a broad range of events with their unique Scandinavian and Irish inspired arrangements.
