The folk/psych duo Siri Karlsson,  Cecilia Österholm and Maria Arnqvist, are on their way with their third album “The Lost Colony”, to be released on th 25th of February. The last song on the album is called “Långt där ute”, which they present today in the shape of a music video directed by David Giese. It’s a journey which starts out calmly, yet somewhat disturbing, but which grows into a powerful folk epic searching for The Lost Colony, tinged by mystique and old folk magic.

Siri Karlsson – “När mörkret faller”

Despite the name Siri Karlsson is a duo, Maria Arnqvist & Cecilia Österholm, who, together with guest musicians, experiment with contemporary folk music. A new album, “Lost Colony”, is coming up in February next year and they write that they are slowly leaving the folk music, and instead approaching a mix of  drone, psychadelia and proggressive music reminiscent of haunted woods and dead swamps. The song “När mörkret faller” is a first taste of this, a song which opens with a seductive ambience with a mantra-like repetion which is then followed by dazzling, beautiful folk jazz and finally ends in an inferno of sound. The video is directed by Anna Erlandsson and Staffan Erlandsson. Background and animation by Victoria Ercin.
