VÄSEN made a new video for Bodin song available on their forthcoming  Melliken album.

As promised in january, here are all details on the upcoming VÄSEN album titled "Melliken", an album with many traditional tunes from the area along Dalälven, when it becomes the border between the provinces Uppland and Gästrikland, Sweden. The name Melliken is what the fiddler Per Persson Menlös was called in his home village Hedesunda. On Väsen’s new album “Melliken” you are invited to a colorful and expressive world where  Olov and Mikael’s music runs like a common thread through the generations. The traditional tunes are commented on by new eight compositions and the old tunes played by Gustaf Strutz, Melliken and Gustav Uggla gain wings and fly again. With a dark touch on the bass viola and the violoncello da spalla together with the silvery nyckelharpas, a sound and interplay is formed that is unique in its form. With Melliken, Väsen continues the musical journey that has lasted for almost four decades. The joy and love for the music is still in center. TRACKLIST 0...
