Enkel

Enkel is a contemporary folk music band hailing from Finland, known for their refreshing and innovative take on traditional Finnish folk tunes. The quartet comprises virtuosic women Kukka Lehto, Maija Pokela, Iida Savolainen, and Leeni Wegelius, who not only excel as multi-instrumentalists but also bring their vibrant vocals to the ensemble. Since their formation, Enkel has been steadily garnering attention for their unique sound, which seamlessly blends time-honored folk melodies with modern sensibilities, delivering a compelling sonic experience that resonates well beyond the borders of their homeland.

Enkel's discography showcases their creativity and versatility, with recent releases like "Love Hurts" and "Irti maasta" entwining soulful storytelling with captivating harmonies. Their eponymous release "We are Enkel" offers an autobiographical glimpse into their identity as a band, while "Pappilan hääyö" pays homage to folk traditions with an innovative flair. Their music resonates with authenticity and emotion, often driven by the Finnish zither (kantele), fiddle, accordion, and harmonium. With each song, Enkel invites listeners into a world where timeless Finnish landscapes meet the stories of today, creating an enchanting encounter with Nordic culture and its evocative soundscape.
