Kari can be heard around the Twin Cities area solo or with Karin Odell and Robin Reyburn staving, chanting and kulning (haunting howling and cow calling).
Influences
Earliest performance influence is Laurie Anderson. As a performance artist my work is visually rich. Local women who are working in Scandinavian music are Arna Rennan, Ruth Makenzie, Karen Solgard, Ruth Sylte...
Huldre are a fairy folk of Norway and Iceland. The tunes are songs about Huldre or learned from them. Often animal sounds (lokk and loll) are part of the presentation.
You will hear the stav, the staff of the Volva Kona, in magical rhythm making.

Among your comments it was mentioned that Kari was a Finnish name. As a MANS name, I find that to be correct, but as a girls name I believe its Norwegian...
