Sundsvall, Sweden (1990 – present)
Garmarna is a Swedish folk-rock band.
Formed in 1990 in Sundsvall, Sweden, as a trio featuring Gotte Ringqvist, Stefan Brisland-Ferner, and Rickard Westman, Garmarna was inspired by Olov Johansson’s musical score for a production of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Their debut album, Vittrad (“Withered”), released in April 1994, was nominated for a Swedish Grammy.
The original trio was soon augmented by percussionist Jens Höglin and singer Emma Härdelin. In 1996 the band released their second album, Guds Spelemän (“The fiddlers of God”) which received the Swedish Grammy award as Album of the Year.
Since then, Garmarna has published three more albums: Vedergällningen (“Vengeance”) in 1999, Hildegard von Bingen in 2001 and in 2003, Garmarna, a re-release of the 1993 EP with 6 bonus tracks.

Скандинавская музыка потрясающая! будь то средневековые баллады или же современные произведения в жанре фолка, фолк-рока и фолк-метала. Nice!

Emma is older, she's also a mother. The band is totally different. You know what would be awesome to my mind in a new Garmarna record or series thereof, would be something stronger all the way around. Take the seasoning of age and change, but don't let all your energy die with the coming of wisdom. Reinevent a new passion, that is wise but still alive and powerful. Garmarna's best music could well be yet unwritten. A music of new power, wisdom and decision.
