Kind of Folk Iberia! Since the 80s Groupa has been at the forefront of progressive Nordic folk music. They have collaborated with many prominent folk musicians over the years. This time they turn their attention to the Iberian Peninsula where they have recorded a new album together with Spanish and Portuguese musicians. Groupa’s gentle flute sound, rumbling bass drum, dramatic mouthy and soft violin tones meet Iberian song and music in an innovative and close interplay. Together with the singer Sofia Portugal, they enchant the listeners with Nordic-Iberian harmony. With quiet ballads and intense love songs, we welcome them as the opening act on this years Urkult and as the first act playing on the new built Sunstage. This will be as legendary as the band itself!
