One of the most acclaimed live acts of the Nordic folk scene, five-piece SVER are famed for an epic, relentless energy paired with seductive musical genius.
From the wistful and dreamy, to frenzied, pounding, sweaty floor-fillers, SVER’s music is grounded in the roots of their native Norway and Sweden, fused with a bold sense of experimentation and excitement. Their imaginative soundscapes, grooves and melodies take the listener deep amongst Norwegian fjords and mountains, through lively pubs and basement clubs, and back out into the deep forest of their unparalleled musicality.
With four critically acclaimed albums, most recently 2018’s Reverie, Olav Luksengård Mjelva (fiddle and Hardanger fiddle), Anders Hall (fiddle and viola), Leif Ingvar Ranøien (diatonic accordion), Adam Johansson (guitar) and Jens Linell (drums and percussion)’s genre-bending music has led to appearances on major TV shows and in the charts, alongside major tours and festival appearances throughout Europe and the USA.
