Himmerland
Himmerland - New music from Scandinavia, Scotland and Chile across styles, cultures and frontiers!

Himmerland is a group of four traveling musicians, each carrying very different life stories and traditions in their bags. We come from different regions of Denmark , Sweden , Scotland and Chile.

Himmerland is:

Eskil Romme, Soprano Sax (Denmark) / Jens Ulvsand, Bouzouki and Vocals (Sweden) / Donald Hay, Drums (Scotland) / Danka Villanueva Bono, Violin (Chile)

“Himmerland tours in large parts of the world these years, performing new music rooted in the very different styles, cultures and traditions of the four outstanding and very experienced composers and musicians. Where ever the band play, they bewitch and spread warmth and happiness amongst people” Radiofolk.dk/Morten Alfred Høirup
