Nordic folk music

Floating Sofa Quartet

Four musicians from Denmark, Finland and Sweden meet through music

Floating Sofa Quartet brings together four folk musicians from Denmark, Finland and Sweden. Since 2013, they have crossed borders with their own take on Nordic folk music, keeping the countries' shared cultural heritage alive while giving it new shape. Their latest album, “Tides” from 2025, once again centres the quartet's own compositions.

The quartet are renowned as a compelling live act with a distinctive sound and contagious stage presence. They have toured widely across Northern Europe and played festivals including Tønder Festival, Kaustinen, Førde, Korrö and folkBALTICA.

The quartet is Clara Tesch on fiddle, Leija Lautamaja on diatonic accordion and reed organ, Malte Zeberg on double bass, and Mads Kjøller Henningsen on flute and Nordic bagpipes.
