It all really began when two young girls got stuck in a lift during the Falun Folk Festival in 1995. Three folk singers happened to be standing outside and to keep up the morale of the trapped girls, they treated them to an unusual and intimate musical performance. Sweet music was made and this, and the desire to deepen and renew traditional vocal folk music, eventually resulted in the formation of the group Envisa.
The group consists of three singers with different musical backgrounds who come together in folk music. With the voice their only instrument, they give folk singing a new look and stretch the limits of what you can do within vocal folk music. Envisa uphold the tradition and have one foot rooted in it, but they are also of their own times, willingly succumbing to present influences, and strive for the unpredictable in their break-neck improvisations. The "Flod" CD reflects the musical breadth of Envisa. The repertoire takes in everything from pastoral choral melodies to heady dance rhythms, all with the same characteristic Envisa stamp on it.

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
