Sväng (Sväng)

The harmonica has been important instrument for Finnish folk players since 1850´s. Besides traditional Finnish harmonica style SVäNG takes influences of music from all around the world: The unique sounding quartet plays Finnish tango and folk music, but takes also influences of groovy Balkan-style, Swedish hambo as well as old time -fiddle dance tunes or rag time. Big part of the repertuar is original works by the band members.

The aim of SVäNG is to give a new life to the extraordinary sound of harmonica band with music that has not been played on this kind of band before. The debut cd of SVäNG has succesfully captured the fascinating feel of their energetic live performances.
