Since its inception in 2015, the enigmatic ritual collective has been paving melodic paths to the past with their unique and mystifying sound. Evading conventional genres and defying labels, the group self-describe their sound as “amplified history,” emphasizing their ability to connect with modern audiences with the rudiments of humanity’s beginnings through music.
HEILUNG’S rituals are captivating and enthralling, with their unique fusion of ancient traditions and modern innovation, transporting audiences into a realm of primal energy and mysticism, invoking the spirits of ancestors through haunting vocals and featuring authentic traditional instrumentation that ranges from rattles and ritual bells to human bones and throat singing.
These rituals will be an opportunity for fans to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Nordic culture and witness firsthand the power of HEILUNG.
Joining Heilung will be special guest Eivør.
