Frigg - Oasis CD

Enhanced CD


Available from Amazon Marketplace 3 New from $19.98 4 Used from $15.94

Despite possessing one of the more unfortunate names in the annals of folk music, the Finnish/Norwegian fiddle ensemble Frigg plays a compelling blend of traditional instrumental Scandinavian folk and more contemporary Americana. The former manifests itself in the atmospheric textures of the bagpipes on "Peltoniemen Hintriikin Surumarssi," while the latter style is most apparent in the virtuoso "Fantomen," with its string-driven whirlwind of sound. The band's family relationship with the legendary folk outfit JPP provides a solid foundation on which to build its musical bridges between old and new worlds.

Personnel: Tuomas Logrén (vocals, guitar, dobro); Gjermund Larsen (violin, fiddle); Arto Anttila (double bass).

Arrangers: Kalle Ankarblom; Tuomas Logrén; Gjermund Larsen; Ian Stephenson.

Dirty Linen (p.61) - "Frigg makes a joyous racket. The opening tune, 'Joikijenkka,' a North American-sounding romp played with conservatory -sharp precision reminiscent of Vancouver's the Bills."

Oasis Music Review

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars World class
I've played all my life. I'm still not good, but my ears are. I went to see Frigg on a whim and got blown away. I've never heard better musicians in my nearly 50 years on this planet. Jeff D. Bedford IN

3 stars great music poor quality cd
the music is great but the quality of the cd is so poor it scratches when played. I have babied this cd after purchasing a second copy of it because the first scratched so badly. the second did the same. Just playing it seemed to cause it to scratch so I am no longer able to listen to it. Every song skips. This is very unfortunate as it is great music. the other titled Frigg CDs I have purchased have not had this issue.
