Our Take

The latest album from ERLEND APNESETH TRIO, Lokkin, is a delightful journey through the whimsical world of Norwegian folk music. With charismatic fiddle player Erlend Apneseth leading the way, this trio brings a fresh, vibrant energy to traditional tunes.

From the moment the first notes of "Strømdal" hit your ears, you can't help but be swept away by the infectious rhythms and enchanting melodies. Apneseth's masterful fiddling is complemented perfectly by Stephan Meidell's innovative guitar work and Øyvind Hegg-Lunde's dynamic percussion.

Tracks like "Telavalssen" showcase the trio's ability to seamlessly blend intricate instrumentation with playful improvisation, creating a sound that is both timeless and contemporary. The interplay between the three musicians is a joy to behold, as they effortlessly navigate complex arrangements with confidence and finesse.

But it's not all fun and games on Lokkin. The haunting beauty of tracks like "Lagnaden" and "Steinstolen" demonstrate the trio's depth and emotional range, proving that they are more than just a group of talented musicians - they are true storytellers.

In a world saturated with cookie-cutter pop music, ERLEND APNESETH TRIO offers a refreshing alternative that is sure to captivate listeners of all ages. So grab your fiddle, kick off your shoes, and let Lokkin take you on a musical voyage you won't soon forget.
