Meie oleme Folk & Rockare - muusikaline koosseis inspireeritud rootsi ja eesti kultuurist ning pärimusest. (eestikeelne tekst asub lehe alumises osas)
Ever since we were kids and started playing music, we've had a dream of creating something together with all the music we've been sharing throughout the years. In the spring of 2015 the dream started to become reality when we decided to form a band. Us three siblings, Natasja, Gabbi and Daniel Dluzewski together with Säde Tatar - the fourth member of our family.
”Folk och Rockare are astonishing from the very first note // This quartet make their own statement" – Piteå Newspapers 27/11/2016
”Any kind of nordic folk music festival would be proud to host ‘Folk & Rockare’ // They captivate their audience.” – Ando Kiviberg, founder of Viljandi Folk Festival and governor of Viljandi county. Tallinn TV 08/02/2016
We soon discovered the process of writing music to be even more thrilling than we expected. As siblings growing up together we have a lot in common musically, but we still got our own personal specialties and preferences. To make things better we got the freshness of a fourth members ideas and visions. Säde's own background contributed with a sound and a history we couldn't refuse.
After a couple of tours and concerts in several countries, the inquires for a record made us realize it was the time to take the next step. The idea of a record was yet another adventure, to capture something only we and our audience had been sharing. We have named it "FRÄNDER", which means "Kin" in Swedish. Referring not only to our own story, but to everyone connecting through music, this strange global language.
Recording our music in Clockwork studio in Estonia was truly an experience. We basically locked the door to the studio and didn't go out before it all was finished.
People whom we couldn't have done it without:
recording sound engineers Elijah Ivanov, Silver Lepaste @clockwork studio (Estonia)
mixing Daniel Bergstrand @dugout studio (Sweden)
mastering George Nerantzis @dugout studio (Sweden)
CD design Laura Eiche (Estonia)
Our heart beat for vocal harmonies, heavy riffs, the poetry of lyrics, soaring melodies and the sound of traditional music. All of this will be found on our record - a summary of our journey this far.
We wish for our music to travel! On this page you can support our record and help us with the remaining steps of releasing this album.
Don´t worry if you can’t contribute to the fundraiser, you can still help enormously by spreading the word about our campaign, making some noise and sharing this page with everyone you know!
