Kvartettinn Åkervinda kemur fram í Mengi, fimmtudaginn 12. júlí kl. 21:00 með efni innblásið af skandinavískum þjóðlögum í hefðbundnum og nýjum búningi. 
Nafnið Åkervinda kemur frá sænsku villiblómi sem dreifir rótum sínum vítt og breitt eins og ár undir jörðu.

Í Mengi munu þær túlka þessi þjóðlög á sinn einstaka hátt, spinna og flétta saman íðilfögrum tónum, fjórraddað án undirleiks.

Húsið opnar kl. 20:30 - Miðaverð er 2.000 krónur.

Iris, Lise, Linda and Agnes, the four singers of Åkervinda make original and modern interpretations of the traditional folksongs of Scandinavia. The group’s name, Åkervinda, is inspired by a Swedish wildflower whose roots spread far and wide like rivers under the ground. Like the flower, gracefully entwining melodies, rock solid groove, and ever intriguing harmonies will take root in your mind. Like the flower, they will be impossible to remove.

Jazz singers at heart, the young women of Åkervinda share a deep love of folk music. Through improvisation, the group gives new life to traditional folk songs and stories of women throughout the ages.

Doors at 20:30 - Show starts 21:00 - Tickets 2.000 kr.
