Väsen

Arcata Playhouse

Väsen is a Swedish acoustic trio that has toured the world for over two decades, with nearly a dozen studio albums and a Swedish Grammy to their credit. They bring playfulness and vitality to the musical traditions of the Uppland region of Sweden, transforming venerable polskas, marches, and waltzes into modern groove masterpieces, presented with spontaneity and humor. On Wednesday April 24 at 8 PM they’ll make their first ever Northcoast appearance with an opening set by The Bee Eaters. “The absurdly broad term ‘world music’ is rendered useless in the face of these musicians who play with such passion and glee that everything on the globe seems to disappear except their hometown fires…” -NPR All Things Considered “…the band’s anciently original compositions can be immensely brooding, stately, fitfully spry or dramatically expansive.” - The Washington Post
