Ur Skogen

With nyckelharpa and Swedish bagpipes, we invite you to various Scandinavian traditional dances played with steady groove, rhythmical details and tasty modal scales.

Knupia is the story of two bands becoming a family. It is Sweden, the Netherlands and Switzerland united in a common balfolk and Scandinavian repertoire. Knep and Nubia put all their musicians and dance teachers together on stage, for a visible tight-bond energy carrying the dancers' feet all night long.
