Description
Frode Haltli 'Avant Folk' is an all-star cast of Norwegian musicians spanning all ages, generations and genres, an elaboration of Frode Haltli's work somewhere in the twilight zone between jazz, contemporary and folk music.
"Ritualised choral chants and skronky electric guitar add textures and lustre, subverting possible expectations of an album whose principal instrument is the humble accordion. It may be called Avant Folk but it's so much more than that." - Sid Smith, Prog Magazine
Featured musicians on this are some of Norway's finest from the creative music field: Frode Haltli on accordion, Oddrun Lilja and Juhani Silvola on guitars, fiddlers Erlend Apneseth and Hans P. Kjorstad, horn players Rolf-Erik Nystrom and Hildegunn Oiseth, wizard Stale Storlokken (Supersilent) on Hammond, bassist Fredrik Luhr Dietrichson (Moskus), drummer Per Oddvar Johansen of The Source and multiple legendary Norwegian bands, as well as the up-and-coming traditional musician Helga Myhr on vocals.
