Our Take

Swedish violinist Karin Hellqvist has come a long way since her days playing in ABBA cover bands in Stockholm. Her latest album, Flockin British English, is a delightful mix of avant-garde compositions and traditional folk tunes, all delivered with her signature quirky charm.

From the opening track, "Silly Ol' Buggers," Hellqvist's playful energy is infectious. Her frenetic bow work and off-kilter rhythms create a sense of whimsy that is impossible to resist. It's like being in a musical funhouse, with surprises around every corner.

The standout track on the album is "Tea and Biscuits," a jaunty ode to the joys of British customs. Hellqvist's violin dances and twirls around the melody, creating a sense of warmth and familiarity that is as comforting as a good cuppa.

But it's not all lighthearted frivolity on Flockin British English. Hellqvist also delves into darker territory with tracks like "Gloomy Sunday" and "Rainy Day Blues." Here, her mournful melodies evoke a sense of longing and loss that is both haunting and beautiful.

Overall, Flockin British English is a triumph for Karin Hellqvist. With this album, she proves that she is not just a talented violinist, but a true musical visionary. So grab yourself a cup of tea, put on your fanciest hat, and enjoy this delightful journey through the whimsical world of Karin Hellqvist.
