The JORVIK Viking Festival (the largest Viking festival in Europe) have just announced Wardruna founder Einar Selvik as their headliner for a special live-streamed event taking place as part of That JORVIK Viking Thing online festival, hosted from 15-20 February 2021 by York’s JORVIK Viking Centre. Ole Fredrik Wannebo (producer and director) "Skugge'' feels particularly personal for it shifts the focus inwards, and as Einar Selvik remarks "it is a song about shadows, echoes and the balance between seeking answers and wisdom internally and externally." The accompanying lyric video allows the listener to journey deep into Wardruna's world and offers space for reflection and contemplation, should you submit to it. The brooding introduction of "Skugge" recalls the subtle majesty of fan-favourite "Helvegen," as Wardruna's idiosyncratic synthesis of hypnotic percussion and delicate vocal interplay comes to the forefront.Įach track on Kvitravn is ingrained with meaning that delves deep into the philosophical, the esoteric, the Nordic myths and how old traditions define human nature and nature itself. With the release of Wardruna's new album Kvitravn approaching on this Friday, January 22, the group has shared the song “ Skugge” (“Shadow”) from this anticipated release, tracing an eerie sonic journey voicing a dialogue between man and shadow.
