Stories found in the nooks and crannies of Nordic landscapes, climate change and human nature. A virgin forest is a forest in its natural state, similar to freely improvised music - a space that has never before been explored or exploited by anyone. Rebecka Edlund is a Swedish singer, lyricist and composer with a soft spot for the ocean, anecdotes and rusty orange. Her music is a concoction of jazz and Scandinavian folk music, herding calls, bird whistles and other peculiar sounds, exploring freely improvised storytelling and contemporary songwriting. Rebecka's 2022 debut album 'Något om en björk' (Something about a birch tree) was nominated by Lira Music Magazine as one of the best folk jazz albums of the year. Rebecka is a curator of the Whirlpool series at Vortex Jazz Club in London and recent collaborators include Corrie Dick, Rob Luft and Huw Warren. Fellow explorers and esteemed improvisors Laura Jurd and Elliot Galvin will join Rebecka as they venture into unknown terrains, taking the listeners with them.
