TVÅ FISK
OCH EN FLÄSK was formed in January 1994 as
an acoustic trio with the intention to play medieval music.
The form of a trio showed too limited and the line-up
growed
to six (sometimes seven) members: vocals, two
violins, 12-stringed
guitar
and percussion.
The material has up to now mostly consisted of medieval ballads from
Sweden, but also music from other parts of Europe and from more recent
times.
On their third CD, that is under production, there are mostly self-penned material.
TVÅ FISK OCH EN FLÄSK do not try to recreate the music
as it might have sounded. The intention is the same now,
as it was
two
hundred years ago, as in the Middle ages: to make ourselves and the audience sing, dance and having a good time.
We do not hesitate to develop the living tradition and add musical experience from other fields. Most of us have a background in different loud occasions which we use when
we arrange and perform our material.
TVÅ FISK OCH EN FLÄSK has since the beginning played in
festivals and rockclubs, in bars and in the streets, acoustic and amplified.
