FLUKT -
"a soaring flight in an eclectic atmosphere of Norwegian folk music" made
its New York City debut on September 9th at Scandinavia House on Park Avenue
in Manhattan. This dynamic trio - Oivind Farmen on trekkspill (accordion),
Håvard Sterten on drums and Sturla Eide on fiddle and hardangerfiddle -
mesmerized the audience in the Victor Borge Auditorium with their off-beat
on-beat blend of Norwegian folk music, with a superb musical and intelligent
twist. With thanks to support from the Norwegian Consulate General,
American-Scandianavian Foundation and the Walter Eriksson Memorial Fund,
FLUKT´s debut of their new album "Drufiacc" was just what the doctor
ordered. Drufiacc - Drums, Fiddle, Accordion -- wonderful medicine for music
lovers´ souls. FLUKT´s other appearances while on tour in the USA are the Scandinavian Folk Festival in Jamestown, New York; several stops in Wisconsin; Nordic Roots Festival in Minneapolis; and finally a concert with the Chicago Accordion Club.
