Eyes firmly on the 21st century, Valravn’s inspiration comes from the original Nordic music tradition. The band manages to organically blend the raw sounds from their ancient instruments with the smooth possibilities of electronic music. The fusion of the two yields a unique and powerful experience of the vigour and life, that lies hidden deep in the Nordic roots.

Live, Valravn is both fierce, intense and alluring. With equal parts energy and charm, the four musicians spellbind their audience. Whether they offer an airy and fine interpretation of an ancient ballad or serve up music straight from dance floors of ages past, it is damnably difficult to just stand aside.
