Join us in our Fine Arts Center for the Nordic Fiddlers Bloc, a unique musical experience.

All hailing from distinct Nordic countries or regions, the fiddle playing powerhouse is made up of Kevin Henderson (Fiddlers Bid, Boys of the Lough and Session A9) whose playing is rooted in the rich heritage of his native Shetland, Olav Luksengard Mjelva - an award winning fiddle player from Norway (crowned Norway’s folk musician of the year in 2013 and winner of the prestigious Spelemannprisen award, the Norwegian equivalent of a Grammy, for his debut solo album) alongside Anders Hall who is an acclaimed exponent of the Swedish fiddle tradition and has worked with the likes of SVER & Sigrid Moldestad.

The trio combine three unique and distinctive fiddle styles to create an unparalleled sound as they expertly weave the varying components of their three musical cultures and traditions together in a hugely impressive and energetic performance.
