Having blown critics minds since their creation in 2009, Wardruna have gone from strength to strength with their unique style which uses old Nordic instruments and lyrics sung entirely in Norwegian, devised in a poetic manner. They are most engrossing in  the live format, following a fascinating performance at the 1100 year old Gokstad ship in the Viking Ship Museum in their homeland. This is why there is no better place to host the concert than the Queen Elizabeth Hall, a setting so grandiose and epic that it promises for a night of legendary music  and memories to last a lifetime.

WIth support to come from the equally iconic Icelandic duo of  Steindór Andersen and Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson, who have spent the last two decades exploring the Icelandic tradition of “Rimur Chanting”, consisting of Icelandic poetry from the Viking days, it promises to be a night where the Vikings come back to England for round 2. But this time, we might be welcoming them with open arms and hoping they stay a while.

Wardruna play the Queen Elizabeth Hall on Thursday 24th October, and tickets are available now.
