Swedish folk music

BOOT

Baroque instruments, traditional rhythms and a modern sound

BOOT are three of Sweden's leading folk musicians: Samuel “Loop-Tok” Andersson on percussion and slaglira (a struck drone instrument), Ola Bäckström on viola d'amore and mandola, and Hållbus Totte Mattsson on mandora and hurdy-gurdy. You may know them from bands like Hedningarna, Groupa, Den Fule and Swåp. Together they bring baroque instruments and traditional rhythms into a modern sound with plenty of attitude, from the delicate to a darkness with a weight approaching rock.
