Baltic Circle brought Hildá Länsman and Tuomas Norvio together in 2017, when they played their first concert together at the festival. The duo is soon releasing their first album and Baltic Circle has the pleasure and honor of producing a record release concert where it all began
Hildá Länsman & Tuomas Norvio mix the ancient Sámi vocal tradition of luohti (yoik) with modern electronic music. Länsman is one of Sápmi’s strongest vocalists and a proud knowledge bearer and champion of the vocal style luohti. Norvio is a Finnish sound designer, composer, producer and multi-musician.
Together with video-artist Alice Marie Jektevik they have created a truly modern concert experience that opens portals to the past and the future. Länsman and Norvio are finally releasing their debut-record early in 2025 on the newly minted Fierran Records.
“There is something special about joik, and its most closely related genres, and when it is mixed with electronica in a tasteful and elegant way, magic happens”
